Additional Notes Built a number of years ago. This tank was mounted on a set of Collett frames at one stage though has never run in that condition. It was intended to be part of a tender for 7027 GWR Castle class 4-6-0. The sale of this loco to the Great Western Society as a source of spares means the future plan for this tank is not known.
