The longer term restoration projects are now 25235 and 27005, both with previous running history here in better days.
25235 in particular is in need of new tyres, and has a fund for this purpose. Quotes seem to shortly be being requested for the new tyres. There is also a restoration gallery.
I believe that the piston is from the Sulzer 6LDA28-B engine in 25235.
The fibre glass is from a cab roof from 27005.
A wag has added a GNER logo to the front of 27005.
Video is projected on the intact No. 2 cab front of 27005.
27005 has one cab stripped down for corrosion repairs, following a pattern seen elsewhere for BRCW cabs.
27005 also has a restoration gallery.

The No. 1 cab is well stripped, with clear evidence of new metal and welds.
