Swindon & Cricklade takes delivery of partially restored Owsden Hall

摘要

The rolling chassis and tender of partially overhauled No. 6984 Owsden Hall arrived at the Swindon & Cricklade Railway's Blunsdon HQ on May31.The boiler was to follow shortly after. Owsden Hall, owned by Trevor Westbury, has been under restoration at the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway's Toddington HQ for many years, being rated a 'rolling chassis'for more than a decade. The G-WR, frustrated by the slow progress, offered various ways forward, but agreement could not be reached.
