Description

Here is my ideal Victor. BR #7714 was moved to Crovan's Gate Works in 1951. The engine was purchased by Johnson Brothers Scrapyard to work here. The pannier was finally withdrawn in 1982 and got preserved by Arlesburgh Railway, reuniting with his brother #5764 "Clarence Montague" and #7714 was named "Victor Garcia" after former NWR Chief-Mechanical Engineer. Now, he works at shunting, pulling both passenger and goods trains on Arlesburgh Railway.
