Photograph Notes: Refilling the saddle tank of Hunslet 0-6-0ST "Rennes". The loco was built in 1944 at Robert Stephenson & Hawthorn Works to a Hunslet design for the Ministry of Defence. It was delivered to the Longmoor Military Railway (LMR) where it was used to train soldiers in aspects of railway operation: here is where it gained the number "WD152" and where it was painted in LMR blue livery. It was sold back to Hunslet in 1960 where it was rebuilt and modernised and given the works number 3880, following which it was sold to the National Coal Board (NCB). It spent the rest of its working life in the Welsh Valleys, finally being retired to the Big Pit mining museum in 1979 where it remained as a static exhibit until it moved to the Dean Forest Railway sometime after 2006. In 2017 it was restored to working order and given its original number and livery.
