Great Central Railway Loughborough 8th January 200…

A busy scene in Loughborough Locomotive Works. Great Central Railway. BR 2MT 78019 under restoration, . The engine returned to steam late in 2004 but at this time the boiler was still out in the yard being worked on prior to reinstallation in the frames. The grey vertical pipe is a multiple blastpipe that was later replaced by a single blastpipe after a period of service. It steamed much more freely afterwards. After spending time at Tyseley having specialist firebox repairs carried out it returned to the GCR & is back in service.
