Avonside locomotive No.24 'Stamford'

A rather more typical industrial locomotive than the others in the Bluebell's collection, it has never been used on the Bluebell. At one time, during a national coal shortage, consideration was given to overhauling it and returning it to traffic as an oil-burning locomotive. However, with no forseeable use for it on the current-day Bluebell Railway it has been placed on long-term loan to a museum close to its original industrial working territory, and is to be restored to working order.

It is currently not at The Rutland Railway Museum, but is stored at a private location until sufficient space becomes available for the loco to be overhauled.
