Now they've sold her I see. Shame really. I was going to make a special trip to Derby to see the engine in steam. Steam has such a big appeal to the public. Its a shame that the only MPLR services will now be diesel hauled. Such a shame. Oh well, it just goes to show that money is everything with steam loco's. Nice film, something to remember it by.
I'm afraid that due to costly repairs the Lady is not returning to Markeaton Park. She is currently in pieces down in Exmoor. Her future is currently unknown. This is the last piece of film of the Lady at Markeaton.
A very nice video! Thumbs up!

Im not sure where you got this info from as the locomotive has new owners now.

Now an EVLR locomotive, will be great to finally see it in steam, even if it is on the banks of the EVLR.

What repairs does it need?

Amongst other general parts a new boiler, as the original one has deteriorated so much.
