At Aberffrwd we passed No.10, the Baguley-Drewry locomotive, on a short PW / works train. I presume that the staff had been engaged on lineside maintenance.

VoR no.10 - Works No BMR002 - Built out of parts from Baguley-Drewry by Brecon Mountain Railway in 1987. Used mostly for duties such as shunting and works trains, but is capable of pulling light passenger trains.

The completed restoration (some years later, running in one the vintage sets). I had worked on several aspects of this project - mainly one weekend a month, as part of a working party. During that time I became proficient with the use of some machine and hand tools, as well as finishing techniques. Apart from sourcing the pitch pine for the underframe, I helped with machining timber for most of the doors and some of the framework, as well as cutting the cladding planks to length. Finally, I took part in the various stages of painting ... About the only area I wasn't heavily involved with was the running and brake gear.

No10 in 1989 at B.Lodge, work is at the preliminary "dismantling" stage, we did find a few major problems. This was one of the early projects in my work as a restorer of heritage vehicles. I was only a very junior member of the team, although I did make a major contribution - I found some pitch pine baulks, long enough for the side cills on the wooden underframe. Later, I was able to learn to use a large morticer and some other tools. Scan of a print in my collection
