    Does anyone know where this loco is at the moment, and what its current state is? I seem to recall it was to be overhauled for the Dartmoor Railway, but I guess plans may have changed given circumstances last year.

    Many thanks.

    No, I was looking for information on a Hudswell Clarke 0-6-0T. If I remember correctly it was the only steam loco owned, and sold, by what was then Railtrack.

    Doubt it seeing as its been in preservation longer than this....
    Are you meaning one of the locos that was in one of the doncaster mainline yards? I think I read somewhere there were two.

    I'm pretty sure it used to be at Colwyn Bay with a Mark 1 coach, but was removed about 5 years ago or so.

    Okay - Done a search for you on this and this website could help? http://www.steamlocomotive.info/locobro ... 20xxx%20Co.

    I haven't done a further search as this loco isn't one that I have known about...

    But based at the Dartmoor railway; maybe someone on here can help you out...

    Regards

    Andy

    Thanks, I'd seen that. I just wondered whether anyone had any more up-to-date information, given the turmoil around the Dartmoor Railway last year.
