City of Truro was in the old York Museum before and up until the war, and I think returned to it afterwards for a while. Presumably No 1 and Henry Oakley were also moved but where, does anyone one know?
Clun Castle was in the North East about September/October 1967. Cannot help with a date for the railtour.
