Malcolm Linham Posted 22 February , 2008 Share Posted 22 February , 2008 Pals, A group of steam railway enthusiasts are going to recreate a LMS Patriot class steam locomotive at the Llangollen Railway. Unlike some classes of engine all the LMS Patriot’s were cut up at the end of steam. David Beardshaw the project leader approached the Steam Railway magazine to come up with an appropriate name for the engine and the name chosen was “ The Unknown Warrior” For further information see www.lms-patriot.org.uk Best wishes Malcolm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanA Posted 22 February , 2008 Share Posted 22 February , 2008 I've never heard of such a project before. Good luck to them - the 'Pats' were a very nice class. It'll cost a bob or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
