35006 Peninsular & Oriental S. N. Co at Cheltenham Racecourse
built at Eastleigh locomotive works in December 1941 and was allocated to Salisbury Shed where it remained based throughout her working life until withdrawn in August 1964 and sent to Woodham Brothers scrapyard in Barry. The remains of 35006 were purchased for preservation in 1983 with the intention of restoring it to running order. The locomotive was moved to Toddington and was the 144th locomotive to leave the scrapyard.
Restoration has been a long drawn out affair. On 10 August 2015 35006 moved under its own power for the first time in under 50 years. The first public runs were during the GWSR's Cotswold Festival of steam gala at the end of May when I saw the locomotive. It looked fantastic and performed superbly.
