The first Fairlie locomotive ever built. These articulated steam locomotives were well-suited to the Ffestiniog line, but met with less success elsewhere. The railway still uses them (not this one, but newer examples).

Originally supplied by Vulcan as works no. 543 of 1874 to the Norwegian Government the locomotive was rejected and returned to the manufacturer. After being rebuilt as W/n 850 of 1876 it was sold to the Queensland Railways where it was named 'Governor Cairns' and given the road number 41. It was scrapped in 1902.
