Aln Valley Railway

Two national preservation organisations have decided that the Aln Valley Railway is to be their base.
The On Track Plant Preservation Group which owns various Matissa and Permaquip vehicles has already moved most of them to the Aln Valley. The second group, the UK Alco Group which owns the 1949 built American Locomotive Company, S1 switcher 801, originally owned by Port Talbot Steel Works, is to bring 801 and hopefully some more American locomotives to the railway for restoration and operation.
