S160: "Franklin D Roosevelt"

   

Keith Loughlin checks steam unions on the S160 in the last of the Autumn sunshine in 1997.

Winter 1997/8 Sadly, this engine  (seen here at Ropley Yard on 23 July 1998) is now withdrawn from service:  too many boiler stays and tubes need replacement, and other work has priority at present.  A dramatic picture shows what we're missing

Where it went (see letter dated 26th May 2003)
