    Hi all, I have compiled a video about the US 756th Rail Shop Battalion who were based in Newport in Wales during WW2.

    They processed over 400 S160 and other locos, and then hid them.

    It also looks at where some of those are today.

    Please take a look

    I also found a site yesterday which listed a lot of the Army Whitcombs and where they went. I will be going through it closely over the weekend as this a gold mine.

    I will have to pick up my book on the italian whitcombs from the movers’ boxes and give the data to him.
