And then there were 3...

29 September 2007 - thanks to Ben Williams for this article

We're happy to announce the latest acquisition for the OTPPG - Permaquip PCT 98702 formerly at Paignton and latterly at Fawley Hill.

This only recently became available through Sir William McAlpine after our visit to go and see it in May 2006.

It moved earlier in September up to Longhoughton to join our other two machines. Dave will be looking after them all and hopefully they will again be made useful to someone in the future.

More details about 98702 can be found on it's own page.

RRPG?

Well not quite. The Aln Valley Railway have recently acquired an Atlas 1304 road-railer for use with their projects, arriving at Longhoughton at the same time.
