  The Battlefield Line at Shackerstone used this as a loco hauled coach for several years in the 1980's but it looks a big restoration job now.

  Apparently the former owner of this is in jail for fraud! Doesn't look too good for its restoration unless anyone can rescue it...?

  People are advised to stay well away from this vehicle, as HMR&C are still interested in it as an assett of the 'owner', the local authority has blacklisted it, and it has a 'one man' band supporter's group who will pester the life out of you if you try to get involved.

  Oh, and it is still a substantial blue asbestos risk.

  Any further news since Bens comment in 2014? The recycledrailcars website doesnt seem to open.

  VCT website seems to suggest it is still in situ with work progressing - as of last year. Wonder if that means the owner has done his time...
