5199 has come away from the West Somerset Railway. Likely, she might return to her Llangollen Railway home. The Large Prairie Tank Engine will never be a WSR resident. The WSR volunteers had two Large Prairie Tank Engines a long time ago. One is 4160. The other, 5193, was turned into a GWR Mogul numbered 9351. The volunteers can't afford to feed two Large Prairie Tank Engines, they have Odney Manor to look after.
5199 isn’t resident on the Llangollen line anymore as far as I’m aware - and 7822 is on loan to the WSR untill 2026 . So when she’s repaired she’ll likely go back to the WSR untill her loan runs out
@@RileysRailway 7822 is under overhaul at Tyesley. Plus, she's getting her Brunswick Green coat of paint back. The WSR Volunteers are struggling to find enough cash to keep Odney Manor, the Mogul and a few other steamies going, as it is. Foxy's boiler ticket has been stopped earlier than expected. It's highly unlikely she'll ever return to the WSR. It would be better if she could return to her original home territory. 5199 has left the WSR, also looking to return to Llangollen. I'm part owner of Foxcote Manor, because I'm a member of the Foxcote Manor Society. Foxy's overhaul will take two or three years to complete, and it's up to us, her owners, what happens after that.
@@kellyashfordtrains2642 I didn’t ask for an essay- yes she will return to the WSR as they are more than capable of managing 2 manors as they are very well funded , unlike Llangollen
@@RileysRailway I've been told it's uncertain where Foxcote Manor will be running after her overhaul. No mention of a return to WSR metals was made. The WSR volunteers are beginning to struggle as badly as the other heritage railways, having discovered they've only got funding to keep their own resident engines steaming. So stop assuming. It's highly unlikely Foxcote Manor will return to the WSR. The cost of operating a heritage railway is rising formidably, I kid you not.
Beautiful trucks ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
