Article in today's Bangor Daily News says they will run steam, and "vintage" Diesels. Last time I looked, there was the Swedish 4-6-0, an ex-B&M Budd Car, and one or two GE 70 tonners. Let's hope they really do a good job of bringing in tourists. Their track is comparable to Guilfords, and they need that rebuilt! |

Are there any other of these mothballed Sweedish engines plying the rails in similar service, or still in storage? |

The H.C.W Steam Train in Hull, Quebec, Canada has one, E2 class 2-8-0 #909. It was operational at one time; I am not certain about now. Four others went to three locations in the UK. One of them, Bygone Village near Great Yarmouth; was recently closed and the collection sold off. One is operational on the Nene Valley Railway. -James Hefner Hebrews 10:20a Surviving World Steam Project |
