Henllan still have coal fired ones.
Welsh highland have a couple of titchy garretts, from southern africa somewhere. Must find out when they run 'em and go and see 'em in action.

ah, now, I used to like the 37s. very rare sight at Paddington where I used to don my anorak... but something came in double-headed by a pair once, to universal approval from the sad types at the end of the long platform the number of which I forget... 8 I think.
Naturally I wasn't there when they crashed whichever 50 it was.
Snot cheap, though. I donated 50 quid to the Bluebell some years ago and got a day playing and driving one of theirs.
