    Apparently this engine was one of a kind and was known as "Sambo". "The Works or Premises Pilot, as it is known, was worked by the unique Maunsell designed 0-4-2 saddle tank known as "Sambo”. No number was ever allocated to it and to this day this name is still used for the Premises Pilot. This job is also unique in that the driver enjoys a regular 1300 lunch break. Instituted for Driver “Saddler”Jackson, who suffered from an ulcerated stomach and was required to eat regular meals," From "Five Foot Three" Number 42 www.steamtrainsireland.com/FFT/ See here again outside the loco shed at Inchicore. mikemorant.smugmug.com/Trains-Railways-British-Isles/Iris...

    The steamindex claims that it was constructed from spare parts and had no. 842, though it was never carried.

    The elevated wagons on the right along with the engine shed detail would indicate that the photograph was taken at Inchicore and not Kingsbridge. Above photo taken outside 3rd door from right below. www.flickr.com/photos/ballyfermot/16658045925/

    Lovely! Note: B114's sister loco B113 is currently at the RPSI's Whitehead depot, being restored (having been moved from Inchicore Works in May). She is due to be put on display at the Ulster Transport museum at Cultra soon.
