Barrow Hill Roundhouse

Hi all,

Can anybody kindly provide me with a list of the preserved and mainline locos currently at Barrow Hill. Looking to go soon and I've heard a couple of 68s are currently stored there.

Thanks

What is there varies from week to week. 68023-025 are all currently stored on site.

Thanks. Any other mainline visitors that will most likely be there a while?

They had an open day in September, when Flying Scotsman was there. If it works, here's a link to a Dropbox folder with some photos of the event, including some of the preserved stock and stored 68s: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/m8g6tvlk7y1lhya/AAALIOKxDOTnvvRfnUn6Bbxwa?dl=0

I have very happy memories of visits to Barrow Hill in the late 1970's and early 1980's. The very friendly shed foreman would always offer young kids a mug of tea and a natter. It was always the same with Shirebrook too.
