Preservation
One, LNER 876 (BR 65033), has survived to preservation and is the subject of a bid to restore it to working order. The Locomotive was preserved in 1972 for Beamish Museum. It was used at Beamish from 1975, pulling the restored NER Coach and the restored NER wagons between the Colliery Sidings and Station, until 1984 when it was declared unfit to run. It then languished in the station yard, with No 14 (Hawthorn Leslie) or the Diesel shunter moving it to keep the motion running on occasion. It was on static display until 2004/2005 when it was removed to the North Norfolk Railway for restoration. Hopefully in the next ten to fifteen years she will come back to Beamish.
