'Estate Railways' - Kirklees Light Railway Steam & Diesel Gala 2019

[@Living_Life_RN]

For those unsure, the ‘Katie’ tank engine with the glossy smoke box is the original, whilst the one with the matte smoke box is the replica.

Interestingly there were technically 3 Heywood locos at the event as ‘River Irt’ was rebuilt out of an old Heywood loco called ‘Muriel’ which is even older than the original Katie! So there was: Katie (Original) Katie (Replica) Muriel (Rebuilt as River Irt)

MUST get one of these - as soon as I can find an estate!!

[@Little-Oshawott-2010]

If I ever own an estate in the hills of Hong Kong, I'll be having one of these trains.

Amazing

[@AndreiTupolev]

It's a Heywood reunion! So were there three different engines all called Katie? There's potential for confusion.

[@Living_Life_RN]

Yes there were three Katies, the Heywood original and the replica, as well as the KLR’s own tender loco.

That little American one looks more like 7 1/2" gauge.
