Down to nowhere
HE 2400/1941
Substantially modified by the Welshpool & Llanfair Light Railway, "Scooby/Scwbi" looks very different from when it was new in 1941. It is one of the Hunslet 50hp mines type (the exhaust was flameproofed) and went new the Royal Naval Armaments Department base at Trecwyn, Pembrokeshire, being their "Yard no.21". It stayed there until 1984, when it was overhauled and repainted before being sent to the Ministry of Defence NATO Ammunition Depot at Broughton Moor, Cumbria. It soon became surplus to requirements and by 1992 it had moved to Llanfair. In 2018, the locomotive was reportedly in store, but this was how it looked on May 2nd 2004.
