Hi All

Can somebody please identify the loco in the attached picture?

It looks like a Hunslet designed Austerity 0-6-0ST and I know it was photographed at Holt on the Noirth Norfolk Railway on 15 March 1998 - so at one of their Spring Galas.

I took it - but twenty five years have passed and I cannot seem to find out precisely what variation it is, who built it and where it is now!3899.jpg

That's No. 3809, built by Hunslet in 1954 and currently based at the Great Central Railway. There are photos with a clearer view of the number available on flickr, I agree that the 0 on the bufferbeam looks very much like a 9 from that angle!
