This Finnish loco No.1060 is now in the U.K. but how? This and 3 other Finnish lococs plus two coaches that are now to be found at Ongar on the soon to be opened Epping Ongar Railway, were originally bought over to form an attraction at a holiday camp/theme park but this never happened. Instead they are now on static display on what was 10 years ago part of London Underground's Central Line.
