Despite the near lockdown of the greater majority of UK engineering facilities, the Trust via the much valued services of our CME Elliot Powick has been successful in obtaining the first of several requested quotes for plasma cutting of the steel that will be required for the main frames bracketry. This process is proving to be a protracted affair due to the effects that Covid 19 is having on UK engineering however we will publish a more detailed engineering report as soon as we are in the position to do so.
Meanwhile we thank all our members and donors alike for your collective patience and understanding during these difficult times,
The Board of The Holden F5 Steam Locomotive Trust.
