Hi Abbotsford. That story as far as I know is total fantasy, there are three preserved Fruness Railway Locos and number 115 is NOT amongst them. No.3 COPPERNOB in the NRM at York, NO.20, the oldest working loco in Britain and possibly the world, and No.25 currently at Carnforth in bits.
There have been quite a few articles in various magazines down the years about No.115 but all have centred on "would it be possible to recover it?", if it had been recovered previously that wouldn't be the case.
Regards, 62440.
