    A few piccies of Cambrian coach 238 (taken between shunting moves today). Now in the workshop, pending move into the Museum itself, so a rare opportunity to view it out in the open. . .

    More recent stock moves to/from Oswestry.

    Pacer 143619 (consisting of 55660 + 55685) arrived from Tanat Valley.

    Although it's yet another Pacer :( This one is in better condition than our other Pacers and will therefore hopefully be much more reliable.

    Moving to Tanat Valley was Hibberd 3953 'Alpha'.
