That's some ornate decoration around the stern.

I hope it had a long, productive and safe life.

We'll soon find out Alan. I've hotlinked it to a few local history groups and we also have some excellent train fanatics viewing these pages. Almost every steam loco built has had its full history recorded..

I have some feedback; ' Little Nut. ran between the Boltsburn Mill, Boltsburn Mine, Lintzgarth Mill Wolfcleugh'. It seems it had a crew of two men and due to the weather extremes of where it was working (high in the North Pennines) it was fitted with a more weatherproof cabin which looked much like larger locos. It seems that wasn't enough (it can snow sideways up there!) and it was fitted with basic full wooden doors! This small loco was also given its own small snow plough to keep the tracks clear!

Super !!!

So awesome . Very happy with this photo and all of your gallery! Great job! Please visit mine too when you have time.

From there by steamship to Singapore and then . . .

It arrived in Singapore in 1911 and worked on the Singapore Government Railway between Pasir Panjang and Woodlands. The FMSR took over the working of the line in 1912 and purchased it outright a few years later, the locomotive then having their number 130 in their B class. In 1923 the Singapore line became connected to the Malayan mainland following the building of the Johore Causeway and the locomotive became surplus to requirements and was sold to Malayan Collieries at Batu Arang as their No 1 in May 1923. The mine was severely damaged during the Japanese occupation and closed in 1960 when everything was abandoned and much of the mining area became flooded.
