What’s it like to take a rusting wreck and turn it into a shiny new fully working steam locomotive. Today we talk to Ian Crowder who is part of the team on the project to bring back to life a Standard Class 4 2-6-0 locomotive. The team are based at Toddington on the Gloucestershire & Warwickshire steam railway. Not only is Ian going to talk to us about the work being done but also the history of this type of locomotive and the life story of this particular one, 76077. This third series of Up Front & Steaming is presented and produced by Tom Burgess for On Track Productions. More at www.upfrontandsteaming.com
