Thanks and yes, a working 02. I believe there are one or two elsewhere that are in working condition. There was/is one at Barrow Hill, not sure whether that is operational.

Cheers mate. Indeed they do have an interesting fleet of diesels, very impressive imo. There are a few others which are out of use at the moment, including 33008 and 56086!

I should think food will be sold at the Caledonian Railway. All the preserved railways I've been too have a cafe where food can be purchased.
