SBR - Gate Guardian [Explored][HFF]

SBR - Gate Guardian [Explored][HFF]
Cadbury No.14 was built by Hudswell Clarke as Works Number D1012 with a Gardner 107HP 6LW engine in August 1955. She is a Diesel Mechanical with 3’0” wheels as an 0-4-0 and weighs 20 Tons, the locomotive had a top speed of 14mph and could haul up to 200 Tons. She started work at the Moreton [biscuit] factory in September 1956 and remained there until the locomotives retirement in 1977.
There followed a peripatetic existence between a number of railway and other locations before arriving at Statfold in 2022, she has been cosmetically restored and again serves as a Gate Guardian.
