Does anyone know what the current location and state is of the above carriage please?

I was at the Bo’ness & Kinnell Railway at the weekend and couldn’t seem to find it so just wondering if I completely missed it or if something has happened to it?

If it is still at Bo’ness can anyone confirm its precise location please?

Many thanks

Its precise location is in road 3 within the Reserve Collection Building just east of the central crossing, but this is not open to the public.
there were several tours of the site on Saturday, all of which walked past it!

Ah right, I think I know which building you mean, and I definitely didn’t see it then.

There was a Bachmann event on Saturday to showcase their new model so it was well patronised.

I took a trip on both the DMU and 4MTT and it was a nice day out.

The line is a little sedate with the speed limits coming in and out of Bo’Ness but the staff were incredibly welcoming.

Only thing I found strange was that they had a first class carriage in the 4MTT rake which had no one in (barring me and my father who paid £5 to upgrade) so the other three carriages were full to the brim.

It was nice to sit in peace and quiet next to the steam engine and not be disturbed though.
