Latest Autumn edition of The Link, Aln Valley Railway magazine, refers to arrival by road by the end of the year. That wouldn't commit anyone to anything. If a rail transfer were possible surely that would be preferable, albeit in relays, to avoid splitting units. However, as there's no mainline rail connection they'll have to be split somewhere!Possibly!

Also, a Northern livery 142 has been deliveried to a school somewhere, presumably one of the community use ones. Annoyingly, I can't find link where I noted the story, but would this be 142045 or 047 ex-Gascoigne Wood?
