6634 is a Collett 5600 Class 0-6-2T locomotive and is owned by the Waterman Railway Heritage Trust. On 19 August 2009 the ‘rolling chassis’ arrived on the SVR in 2009 for restoration from ex-Barry condition to be completed. SVR News announced that the SVR had reached an agreement with the owners to complete the overhaul of the ‘bottom end’ while Crewe completed the repair of the boiler. The SVR would then bring the locomotive into use; with it being run on the SVR for ‘a period deemed fair by both parties’. The deal appeared favourable to the SVR as it would not involve the boiler shop or require space in the works on the jacks. Some work has been carried out since arrival, but the locomotive is currently in storage at Bridgnorth.
In Summer 2012 the boiler tubeplate was stolen from Crewe Heritage Centre with serious disruption to progress [1]. As at February 2014 it was reported that there was no progress or commitment on the boiler[2]. At July 2014 the SVR was seeking legal advice concerning the continued lack of progress in order to resolve this long running problem[3].
