The engine was (still is?) looked after by Johnsons's of Banks and has been for many years. I think i first saw it in about 1975 when i was but a wee toddler, and I'm 95% sure that it had a canopy at that time. However the next time i remember seeing it, there was no cab and I now wonder whether I imagined it lol. Maybe someone could confirm whether it is still owned by RSPCA or whether it is property of Johnsons, or even someone else.
Hope my limited info helps you Dave?

'The Horses Friend' is owned by the Moores family from Liverpool, and as you say has been looked after by Johnsons for many years. The cab is still with her but not fitted
