31/08/1961 Whitland MPD 82008/30/42/4 have been allocated here. SLS/196110
08/08/1965 Cancelled withdrawals Although the P.R.O. showed 82030/44 as withdrawn, both locos have since been noted in steam and the P.R.O. himself has given 82044 as transferred again since then. Failing an official correction it seems a fair assumption that the correct entry for these two locos should read: 82030/44 to 82E SLS/196512
