K2 nameplate
Tasmanian Railways K1 : 0-4-0 + 0-4-0
Built in 1909 to Garratt's patent by Beyer, Peacock [Manchester] : wksno. 5292
K1 aka K 1 1/2 is reputed to have been assembled from parts of both K1 and K2 prior to returning to the UK. She arrived at Portmadoc in 1966 but she was far too big - and heavy - for the Festiniog. However, she can fit into the Welsh Highland route, although her tractive effort is too small for working regular service trains she has made a number of guest visits. I have had the pleasure of travelling behind her on a few occasions. There had been a number of mechanical & steaming issues which lead to her being put on loan to SBR in 2019, with the agreement being that she would be overhauled, and she was back in steam by 2020.
I have a fantasy that she pays a visit to the South Tynedale Railway - hearing her storm up to Alston from Slaggyford would be a wonderful cacophony !

MER[23] - MER Locomotive No.23 {4 of 4}

One of MER 23's cab roof mounted nameplates.
MER Locomotive No.23 was originally built in 1900 by the "Isle of Man Tramways & Electric Power Co.Ltd.", and subsequently rebuilt with waggon bodies. It was restored in 1983, named "Dr R.Preston Hendry" in 1993 but withdrawn in 1994 and stored, initially off-site [it was in Laxey Shed in August 2023].
It currently carries names plates on the cab roof, and is painted in the freight grey & green livery of the IoMT&EPCo.

O&S (meme) - sense of humour

Someone who plays with photoshop was obviously inspired by the 1960s song by Brian Hyland about a small item of ladies' swimwear ... No idea when the original event took place or whose locomotive this is, but it appears to be carrying an unusual name ...
Not my Image : fair use and comment.
