The last push is under way to try to get back on the rails a former quarry train which has run out of steam.

The Quarry Hunslets would be a good candidate for one of the best steam locomotives. They did their job day in day out for years. fortunately there are quite a few in presvation. Hope Hugh Napier will soon join those in working order.

Best wishes,
