Rumoured to be saved though (perhaps to a local Devon preserved line?) before the site is flattened to make way for housing...

Still apparently surviving although the sale to the previous interested party seems to be in doubt... anyone fancy taking on this challenge?!

Any update on whether this machine is still likely to be preserved? Surely there must be machines in better condition that could be saved?

No news yet (I don't think). It was still in the shed this week though...

Still there January. Would be a useful source of spares for another perserved machine. Engine, gearbox and many other parts still present (Except glass).

This was apparently extracted from the shed yesterday for the first time in many years. The site is being demolished so it looks like the end for this machine - probably scrapped on site...? Any more updates appreciated!

Currently being cut up by the Wring Group who are doing the demolition works on site...
