foden Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 Can anyone tell me how many M26 Pacifics there are in the UK? There's one at the hop farm that we all know about. There's also the ex-Wynns one which has recently been restored. There was one which I saw about 10 years ago, just forget exact location, some where near Chorley in Lancashire. It was armoured cabbed, painted blue and was more or less complete. I wonder what happened to this vehicle? Cheers Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
