Coach bogie Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 (edited) I received an email, last night, stating that the GWR 28XX , 2818 was no longer at Shildon. Can anyone enlighten me where it has gone? Thanks Mike Wiltshire Edited February 4, 2017 by Coach bogie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steamport Southport Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 There were rumours about it going to Didcot a while ago. Jason Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed-farms Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Not sure where these rumours have come from, but Locomotion at Shildon posted a video on Facebook at 14:50 of 2818 and E5001 getting shunted into the museum by the resident shunter. Given that the 71 is in front of 2818 I would presume she is still there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach bogie Posted October 8, 2017 Author Share Posted October 8, 2017 2818 has been separated from its' tender. I presume movement south is not far away. There is a notice that the museum will close early on Thursday so this could be movement day. Staff would not confirm when asked.
