Some guesswork required here, but the loco is thought to have been built initially by S Battison in 1942 and rebuilt by Arthur Glaze in 1969. It is very much a 'what might have been' exercise based on various elements that really did go into Great Western locomotives of various kinds. Arthur loaned it to the Hilton Valley Railway for some years, and later to the Walsall Steam Railway. Its current whereabouts are shrouded in secrecy, but it was spotted by photographer Dave Hill on the Capon Bridge Railway near Bromyard in 2006
