Apedale new babe

[Admin]

At Apedale Valley Light Railway today a newly restored loco (don't ask me the name/type as I am not into narrow gauge) was towed out to the station there for an impromptu photo-shoot. Maybe someone on here can enlighten us on the loco details?

This locomotive I believe is a Kerr Stuart Joffre type No. 3012 of 1916 which arrived on August 13. It will be part of The Made In Staffordshire event on September 10th&11th.

Thanks Thomas.

I did find that out elsewhere but didn't update this thread in time.

I believe a 'sister' type named 'Stanhope' will also be at the Gala.

Looks like being a good event.
