WIRRAL Council say they are interested in Leisure, but when asked for money or help with it, they are not. I worked on the vintage trams for 14 years and now the new museum owners no longer want a working museum (insurance costs, etc) and do not Want work going on on trams etc. They want exhibits to be static, buy interactive!!! What's more interactive than riding on an old vintage vehicle? We had around 80% of exhibits working when I worked there, now it is presently closed and no sign of it opening in yhd near future!

Wirral Transport Museum nes owners are removing vehicles from the museum, so they will have no interest. Is anyone interested in the other two cars yet. I'm sure buffers could easily be fabricated at a reasonable cost. The main problem would be replacement of the panels and windows. Some of the body framework too. These problems have been had with the Class 502 2-Car set, at Burscough, Lancs; slowly and surely the unit panels are getting replaced and fitted and repainted. It with never run on third rail again (Never say Never), but plans are to take it to Preston Docks Railway and use as passenger stock, with a loco. I'm sure there must be a railway somewhere that can take two coaches, hopefully, not in a field as they used to be??? John Harrison. Wallasey.

When LMS Push Pull units were in 'PUSH' mode and towing a wagon, was the wagon behind the loco? Also when it was in 'PULL' mode with a wagon, where was the wagon?

When Class 21s were changed to Class 29s, were they all repainted in two tone Green, or did some stay in all over Green?

When Class 21s were hanged to Class 29s, were they all repainted in two tone Green, or did some stay in all over Green?
