Desmond

Desmond is our Club steam locomotive, others are owned by Club members. This Hunslet 0-4-0 saddle tank locomotive is based on a Welsh slate quarry design, similar to that of Jasmine and Elaine. The locomotive, which is named after its previous owner and past member Des Beeney, is presently under repair but when returned to steam it will give members who may not own a steam locomotive the opportunity to learn the arts of firing and driving.
