SBR - Harrogate {1 of 2}

19 Aug 2024 1 52
Harrogate : 0-6-0ST Built in 1944 by Peckett [Bristol] wksno 2050 . Originally built for Harrogate Gas Works, with a modified cab to pass under various obstructions. Sold in 1956 to the Festiniog Railway and unofficially named Volunteer, it was too heavy, too wide and the wheelbase too long for the line [I overheard the PW Manager expounding on the topic]. The FR sold it on to Bredgar & Wormshill Rly, who completed the restoration and provided the name & maker's plates. It then came to Statfold, and in due course visited Alston in 2017, where it met Barber, the first time the two had met in 60 years. [Note: Barber's cab profile has also been lifted, for crew safety reasons].
