'Little Nan' was a 9.5" steam locomotive built for the Barking Park Miniature Railway in around 1950 either by Barking Council's own staff, or by a local company or individual. It ran there until the railway closed in the mid-1990s and was kept by the former operator. The railway reopened in 2010 regauged to 7.25" and Little Nan was sold to Derek Warren, then resold in 2015 to a gentleman with possible association with the South Downs Railway, the intention being to regauge it to 10.25"

'Glyndwr' was built by the late William Morris in 1922. When he died, his son - by then in Australia - gifted the loco to the South Wales Miners Museum in Afan Forest near Port Talbot. Glyndwr is built to the relatively rare gaige of 9.5" and the Museum has established a 140 yard line to run it, and offer rides to the public

'Atlas' is a 9.5" gauge locomotive thought to have been built around 1890, although the chassis may have been based around a much older locomotive of circa 6-inch gauge. It was bought by an enthusiast in Birmingham in the 1940s, but never steamed well, and was later sold, finding its way to California, USA. After running for a few years it was left standing (with water in the boiler!) until repatriated to the UK a decade later with three carriages. Now under restoration by Freddie Toher, who would welcome any other information.

Little is known about this machine. It has been on display  in a glass case (hence the problems with photography) in the National Museum of Scotland, Chambers Street, Edinburgh. (Thanks to Nigel Mundy)
