    Oh dear, looks like its headed for the great scrapyard in the sky. I belive it was broken for parts for 97654. Nice machines these, an 0-6-0 version of Ruston & Hornsby mark 165DE.

    The comment under 97654 picture suggests it is at Long Marston although I'm not sure - maybe someone who went on the recent visit can confirm please?

    97653 should be at Yorkshire Engine Company of Long Marson, but this closed ages ago. Not sure where it is now...

    It is now apparently at a private site in Warwickshire.

    The frame of 97653 is on top of a wagon at long Marston & was visable from the train at the 2009 open day.
