Yes, quite a few bits were sold to other railways, and there were some things there that already belonged to others that were removed, mainly stuff that was being worked on as far as I can gather.

News now is that a limited service will resume on Friday 9th July. It's only running between Llangollen and Berwyn for now, because there is some work still to go on the line further along. Because of that, it's also a diesel railcar service rather than steam, as there's no loop at Berwyn for the loco to change ends.

Steam is running again now, with the line open as far as Carrog. Work still continues on the new station at Corwen, with no date for that opening yet.
