    Pedant alert: 76084 has also operated on the mainline in preservation, albeit to a much lesser extent than '79.

    While starting to strip the loco at Steamport we found that the bevel gears in the reverser weren't mating properly, this must have been a problem when in B.R. ownership. Bob Maxwell re-machined them & they were perfect after that. The main thing we did at Steamport was releasing the boiler from its mountings.

    Bob.

    In the days of Frogstone It was mainly scraping off the crap and making sure Dave Hibbert didn't fall off too often.

    Unfortunately its main line days are over, the mainline kit isn't coming with it. It will have a period in store as the repairs to 80105 will come first.

    So far, (and likely to remain that way with her move!) my only two shots of 76079, both at Steamport. 5676464901_892902f983_o.jpg 5677023528_516b6c6755_o.jpg

    It’s really good to hear this. Since 76017’s boiler ticket expired in January we’ve no 76’s running. 17 is in store at carnforth, 79 had been in store at Pickering and 84 stores at weyborne. We at Toddington standard locomotive Ltd with 76077 were the only ones actively working. With 77,79 and 84 all being Sutton oak and springs branch survivors, there’s now a good chance that a few years from now we’ll have possibly all 4 in steam at the same time. Then It’ll be a case of trying to get them back together.
