    Hello All,

    Does anyone know of this locomotives current whereabouts, I think she's at Didcot, but I might be wrong.
    Last I read and I can't remember where I read, that 6024 in need of maintenance. Anyone update please.
    Their website has not been updated since mid-May. Thanks in advance.

    She was timetabled to run back into Barton Hill after the Shrewsbury trip - video of that showed a bit of a blow on one of the cylinder drains - whether that is requiring maintenance I don't know. As I understood it, the 6024 group have a lease on a shed at Barton Hill - if she is in there it would explain why I don't see her when I drive past every morning. Tornado and DoG very much in evidence - although DoG hasn't obviously moved since returning from her ill fated last trip.

    As I understand it 6024 is supposed to be taking the first Weymouth trip on the 17th so if all is now well I would expect to see her outside next week being prepared for that run. I'll let you know if I see anything!

    (NB despite the user name my interest in 6024 is only enthusiasm not any official statement!)
