Hibberd 4wDM on the Lavender Line.
Sunday 12th April 2009 and the Lavender Line at Isfield, Sussex. Only two locomotives were on display this day. This one was a Hibberd “Planet” 4w Diesel Mechanical which according to the Preserved Railway Stock List Website was built in 1953 (works number 3658) and worked for ICI and Harry Needle before being purchased by the Lavender Line. The Lavender Line Website says little is known of the locomotive’s history and that it was built in the Mid 1960s. The locomotive is currently operational.
