Formerly part of the 'Shropshire Collection' a small Ruston diesel was purchased by a group of members and has now been restored to full working order. A little cosmetic work is still required but she runs very sweetly.
Standing over the engine pit whilst two of the group take a rest from tinkering with the brakes (honest!! - JC is definitely not about to start a demolition job).
First day in public service (20 April 2003) the Ruston runs with a couple of brake vans (but not carrying passengers). A pair on South West Trains 159 units can also be seen.
