488

London and South Western Railway (LSWR) Adams Radial Tank, 488, is currently at Sheffield Park awaiting overhaul. The engine will probably need a complete new boiler barrel before it can work again, and was last operational in 1990.

It spent part of it's life on the Lyme Regis Branch, before Bluebell acquired it.
