    Interesting. It doesn't seem to be either a MGWR or GS&WR engine. They had no 2-2-2s according to wikipedia.
  • derangedlemur said:
    The N2 on the front would date it to post 1925.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Looks like Wikipedia is wrong. According to them, nobody had an N2 no 49 2-2-2 in Ireland, and yet here's a picture of one in Castlebar.

    I see that the name "Dickson" is on this 0-4-0 locomotive. Is this telling us that it is from the Dickson Manufacturing Works?

Anyone know?

    This was the first of this class built at Eveleigh. 3801 - 3805, the streamlined ones, were built by Clyde Engineering first then Eveleigh built 13 even numbered locos and Cardiff Workshops at Newcastle built 12 odd numbered locos for a total of 30.

    Great old photo. Such atmosphere!

    These locos were a wonderful feat of engineering, what a pity that we can't "make stuff" any more.
