I thought Lilliputians in the tender was only fodder for Great Western engines, but it on seeing your picture it would appear they feed them to Southern engines too..

Not a heritage line, but these are scans from my wifes uncle. All I know is they are from Bicester in March '87, which was 6984s original location after leaving Barry....

i’ll post of bunch more pictures of why...

 

but officially this trip never happened, all of us on board (which was quite a lot of us) were embargoed from publishing the pictures at the time with threat of being “pushed outside of the loop” if we did, and it only happened by an extreme set of events and very short notice, in days long before mobile phones.. but gen still Spreads, but it was / still is a bit of a secret, and definitely a few websites are incorrect.

 

guesses ?

I don't know the history, but I guess the Guiness 0-4-0 was aquired when Park Royal took on the two 08s from BR, one of which is now on this line too nowadays.
