The last Welshman – Taff Vale 28 to have boiler lift
steam locomotive – Taff Vale Railway 0-6-2T 28 – is to have a boiler lift and inspection at the
Gwili Railway – 30 years after it last steamed.
The Gwili Vintage Carriage Group has £32,000 to overhaul the National Collection locomotive, meaning it can repair the first sections of the frames and motion and inspect the boiler.
