UPDATE on E762 LYN

Apr
12
2018

Just to advise that, despite the recent trackwork update at Killington Lane, LYN will still not be used on regular service trains for the time being.

Any questions regarding the issue should be addressed to the loco's owners, the 762Club - the L&B Trust and Company are not the owners and so will not be answering questions regarding the loco.

More news to follow - when we have it.
