BR Class 04 0-6-0DM No. D2203, built by Vulcan/Drewry in 1952, has been put for up sale, with a new owner sought after.

This loco is privately owned and currently located on the Embsay and Bolton Abbey Steam Railway in Skipton, North Yorkshire.

It is an historic locomotive, the last remaining from the initial batch of four locomotives, and purportedly the last remaining locomotive to have worked on the Wisbech and Upwell Tramway.

Following use by British Railways, it worked in industry at Hemel Concrete Company, before preservation at Embsay.

The locomotive was operational until its radiator was removed for repair around two-and-a-half years ago, but is not currently operational.

The locomotive is for sale as seen, with the seller inviting offers in the region of £11,000.00
