Good news that it was only cuts and bruises to the driver and nothing more serious.

I think 2730 and 2720 are both untouched where as the others are in a bit of a rugged state with little bits missing.

I think 2572 as been painted for a while but if its the one im thinking of thats been there a while , then it is on the high reemers getting a refitted engine.

Yeah a friend said last night it’d been to and from St. Helens once or twice recently. Couldn’t quite remember at the time of the post what the order it was in but he did say engine work and a repaint.

Possibly on a road test or there going the long way round heading back to wales to bypass the charge on the new runcorn bridge.
