- 1 locomotive was built in 1838. It was sold to Mersey Docks where it operated alongside other
withdrawn locomotives as a stationary pumping engine. Forgotten, its true identity was
only discovered when electric pumps were installed in 1928 and The Liverpool Engineering Society campaigned to
preserve it. The London, Midland &
Scottish Railway restored it to working order in 1930 for the centenary of the opening of
the Liverpool & Manchester Railway. Its main claim to fame was its role in the film
‘The Titfield Thunderbolt’. This locomotive remains preserved
