On a web site about Garatts, I read the following from an artical appearing in the Nov 1994 issue of Railway World;
"Hot on the heels of the news that the Ffestiniog had been awarded the Light Railway Transfer Order to take over and rebuild the derelict Welsh Highland Railway, came the announcement that the FR's provisional order for 2ft gauge Garratts from South Africa to work the line had been confirmed."
Does any one have any more infomation on this?
Thanks
