The problem with these restoration appeals is that they keep getting
diverted from the original cause. You think you're contributing to restoring
a 57 class to working order, and the next thing you know some official is
opening a toilet block!
(sorry, that was uncalled for ).

If we're going to repatriate these forgotten Tibettan locos, should we
perhaps open up a subsidiary appeal to search for that prototype loco that
sunk with the ferry in the Clarence River at Grafton one stormy night?
