C847. The focus of a lot of attention over the past few months, 847 is almost ready to return to hopefully reliable service. Work focus inside the firebox has seen the grate completely renewed with new firebars and carrier bars. The Westinghouse air compressor was overhauled by Triple R engineering in Palmerston

L509. Continues to give good service during Sunday running with no problems being experienced.

C512. Work on turning up new pins and reaming and bushing holes on the valve gear parts has been the main focus of work over the last few months. The way bar had its bearing surfaces built up and machined and has now been fitted on the frame.

Another Busy few weeks at SSR. For the first time in a very long time Barclay 1335 was moved inside the loco shed.

Great News we have just recieved a grant from the Lion Foundation for the Purchase of a new set of fire bars for the overhaul of C 512. Many thanks to them.
