G'Day Gents
I've Just bought the latest Heritage Railway mag (Sept issue, takes a while to get here) it had a section about 'Atlantics' and the boilers found in a Essex factory, one is being rebuilt into a Marsh Atlantic, What happened to the other boilers, and what locos did they come off. Any imformation greatfully received.
