A Roster from 1994

In 1994, judging by the handwriting, Peter was the roster clerk.
Several of those rostered are no longer around.

Eight TR steam locos were in use during the gala, and some subsequent regulars not in use:
  • No.2 (HL) - firebox since replaced & currently undergoing 2nd 10 year boiler test 
  • No.20 (Gamma) - out of use pending boiler repairs 
  • No.21 - out of use pending boiler repairs 
  • No.38 (RSH) - out of use pending boiler repairs
  • No.4 - out of use pending boiler repairs 
  • Irwell - dismantled, out of use pending boiler repairs
  • Progress - left TR, out of use pending boiler repairs 
  • Wellington - out of use pending boiler repairs off site

  • Cochrane?   in 1994 boiler being replaced; now in common use & on 3rd 10 year test
  • Horden?   in 1994 stored in the yard; in regular use after boiler work completed in 2021
  • No.49?   in 1994 undergoing boiler repairs; in use again following firebox replacement
  • Stagshaw?   in 1994 being repaired; now out of use pending boiler repairs 
  • Twizell?   in 1994 required boiler work; now requires firebox work
  • No.6?   in 1994 required boiler repairs; now had its firebox replaced
Readers may discern patterns in the above.
