Even though the extensive research by the HSBT team has produced an immense amount of new information, some mysteries still exist.rnPeter Hands' books say that 'Jubilees' Nos. 45556 Nova Scotia, 45573 Newfoundland, 45608 Gibraltar and 45643 Rodney were scrapped at Cashmore's, Great Bridge, but an analysis of the firm's official records reveals that this was not the case. It has now been found that 45573,45608 and 45643 were broken up at Clayton & Davie's yard at Dunston-on-Tyne. However, there is no record of 45556 going there, so in which yard was Nova Scotia scrapped? This is an example of how Railway Magazine readers can, after all these years, suddenly have a unique chance to help re-write the railway history books.
