Anybody know what's happening with the Craven's unit? It's a long time since I've heard that it's running around anywhere. Is it still road (track!) worthy? Obviously having TBTC in its various forms over the combine restricts where it can be run in traffic hours.

Apparently there is a desire to have it running during the further 150 celebrations on the Met later this year. As to its condition I'm not sure but it is shunted around Northfields occasionally.

Since being taken out of service (CHT) the unit was moved to Northfields as there were certain things identified that needed to be fixed, that is now complete after a considerable amount of money was spent on it. The last I heard (about 3 weeks ago) was it needed to be proven that no asbestos remains, we know it went in for decontamination in the late 70's and early 80's but proof needs to found. All things being equal the unit should be out and about some time this year.
