Pendre Goings On August 2008

Work on No 7 'Tom Rolt' has continued over the summer. Since the hydraulic test was completed on the boiler the engine is gradually being put back together.

The boiler cladding has been put back on and repainted, and the sand box has been added on after many years without.
