Porthmadog Harbour Station with Garratt No87 and her train. The first carriage looks tiny because it is to the Ffestiniog loading gauge. Details for 87. Wheel arrangement is 2-6-2+2-6-2, class NGG16 built in 1937 by Cockerill (Seraing, Belgium). Spent most of its working life in South Africa until it was replaced by diesel traction, it was imported to the UK by the Exmoor Steam Centre. Boston Lodge works carried out a major restoration, when she was initially liveried in photographic grey on being finished in 2009. Her livery has been Midnight Blue since a repaint in March 2010. As with all Festiniog / Welsh Highland steam locomotives, she is coal fired.
