    Hello,

    Any body know the latest progress at Dorrigo? I'm looking to research the current state of New South Wales Z25 class No. 2535

    Many thanks

    Chris

    They've collected alot more. Garratt 6042 is still in a paddock outside the town of Forbes in the central west of NSW. They are still not (and in my opinion will never) open.

    It's been closed for eons, wasn't there also some disagreement/split in the membership.
    Kind of like hermeskeil... But at least there the doors are opened.

    The attitude is one of collect, collect, collect. There's always something else that needs "saving", so nothing to put into what's required to open to the public.

    Does seem to have been 'on the way' for a long time. I guess they must have some income to allow them to keep collecting?
