Several of the former Levisham volunteers are now volunteering at the Yorkshire Wolds Railway, they've all been made very welcome and are already making a good input into things.

I know there a minefield of variants but a class 04 would be good,plenty of livery options,BR and industrial so would appeal to a lot of modellers,and to me Dapol do seem good at the small locos.

Yep that's how we know them,got to be one of the worst (car) engines made,more so considering it replaced the Zetec which are next to no bother. Interesting to note that the later Ecobooms are chain driven but the oil pump is still belt driven.

Another milestone for the YWR,also to see will be the on going restoration of 424 type Fowler diesel shunter and the rebuilding of H&BR Sprotbrough signal box.

A lot of the mk1/2 Escort restorations I see on the various Facebook pages are like that,mostly a pile of new panels welded together with very little of the original shell left,some very good quality work going on though.
