Hi James,
yes indeed there are many of these shunters stiil about, I believe some may still be at work in Industry,with most most heritage lines having an example of one sort or another. The class numbers exist 01,02,03 etc upto 17. I know the heritage shunter trust have a website full of info and there are many books on the subject. The HST are based on the Peak Rail Line at present. There was/is a website preservedshunters.co.uk with many photo's and details too.
Hope this is helpful
regards
