This locomotive was built by Vulcan Foundry in 1918 and spent its working life shunting at the works.

It appears to have started its preservation life at Peak Rail but did not operate there.

It then appears to have moved to Barrow Hill Roundhouse where it was restored and it is recorded as being in steam there in 2014.

Since then it has visited a number of heritage railways and at Beamish Museum.
