You say that no restoration is required to most of those Locos. Having viewed the Preston Services website, it is stated next to EACH LOCO'S photo that it is UNRESTORED. Looking at the photos it is obvious that each loco has had an Exterior coat of paint to make them look respectable but on looking closer there are parts missing from all of them. Expensive Parts too. Injectors. Clack valves. Copper pipework. These will all need replacing before you can even think about just TRIAL STEAMING the locos let alone putting them into service. What is the mechanical state of each loco? Unspecified on the website. What is the state of the Boilers? Again unspecified on the website. You cannot be serious that these locos will not need any restoration.
