Regarding The Dalesman, does anyone have any pre-preservation photos of it they are willing to post? I'm thinking of the days when it worked for a living and also, possibly, standing out of use. I don't know the history of the engine - I'm assuming it did actually stand unused for a time in a yard somewhere...?

It was Hentons engine at Hopwas, shared a shed with Conqueror, Rajah, Nero and a Marshall. It pretty much went straight into preservation in Staffs from work.

I think these have been on here before, I copied them from somewhere on the internet a while ago and I apologise if they belong to someone else.





This is one of it stood in our yard in the late 70's
