Sadly with many it was cut up a few years ago when the scrap prices went sky high over here....!!!!
Whatever possesses people is beyond me!!
Apparently it was complete with all tracks, engine and slightly chopped top plating!! And all mine for scrap value and only about 5 miles from me!!!!
I would have towed it home for that by hand...!!!!!
