This is "U2" , more properly known as "Greenbat" - a Greenwood & Batley battery locomotive, Currently parked in the sidings at Ravenglass, in Cumbria has the once 16" gauge No. 2872, built in 1957 for Thomas Marshall & Co. of Storrs Bridge Fireclay Mine in Yorkshire. Formerly used as a carriage shunter; it was also hired to Gateshead Garden Festival, as motive power during the construction phase. Sadly, it seems to be out of favour now, and sits awaiting refurbishment and a new battery.
