    Hello all,
    I remember, from almost yearly visits to the Glasgow Museum of Transport, that there was a fireless locomotive on display, from what I can gather Andrew Barclay 1571/1917 South of Scotland Electricity Board No.1, however on visiting the new Riverside Museum, it appears that the locomotive in question has not made the move. Does anyone here know if it is simply languishing in the old GMoT building, if it is at some reserve collection warehouse, or if it has moved elsewhere? Such information would be much appreciated.

    Ah, much appreciated, thank you. Nice to know it's still "in the system", it's a great looking loco.
