However… towards the end of the day a problem developed, and despite our best efforts, this has resulted in the engine being withdrawn from service.
We are therefore extremely sorry to advise that No 11 will NOT be in service tomorrow (Sunday 25th May).
Our weekend festival will continue with our other resident Island engines; No 24 ‘Calbourne’ & No 8 ‘Freshwater’ assisted by No 38 Ajax
No 11 is being fully assessed and we are working hard towards having the locomotive in light steam for some of Sunday and throughout Monday
