Story

An ex-Corris Railway locomotive, purchased in 1951 and subsequently named after Sir Henry Haydn Jones, owner of the railway prior to preservation. Following the expiry of its 10-year boiler ticket in early 2012, the loco was stored out of use at the Corris Railway until April 2013, when it commenced a tour of various railway sites in England to help raise funds for its overhaul. In February 2015 it was moved back to the Talyllyn. In Autumn 2015 it was sent to the Vale of Rheidol Railway in Aberystwyth for its overhaul to start. It is due to return in 2018, in time for its 140th birthday.
