Info (SP): Con la formación de Global, llegaron los vehiculos de dimensiones nunca vistas y los diecisiete vehiculos de esta unica remesa fueron los primeros de trece metros que vimos por nuestras carreteras. Duraron notablemente mas que sus hermanas de doce y quince metros, hasta tal punto que dos de ellas incluso fueron preservadas varios años tras su retirada.
Info (EN): With the founding of Global, we saw the arrival of buses in lengths not seen before in the public fleet. Such is the case of this single batch of seventeen buses, which were the first ever thirteen-metre long vehicles to serve the island. These lasted notable longer in service than their twelve and fifteen metre long sisters, to the point where two of them were even preserved for several years.

One of a class of only two engines, stabled besides the locomotive shed At the Great Western Society at Didcot. The locomotive was built for the Cardiff Railway in 1898.
The Cardiff Railway was owned by the Marquis of Bute and was the smallest railway absorbed into the Great Western in 1923. It operated a 'main line' of 11 and a half miles connecting to the Taff Vale railway (also absorbed into the GWR in 1923) and 120 miles of dock and colliery sidings. It owned only tank locomotives of various sizes.

One of a class of only two engines, unusually employing Kitson-Hawthorn valve gear with the link above the running plate, built for the Cardiff Railway in 1898.
The Cardiff Railway was owned by the Marquis of Bute and was the smallest railway absorbed into the Great Western in 1923. It operated a 'main line' of 11 and a half miles connecting to the Taff Vale railway (also absorbed into the GWR in 1923) and 120 miles of dock and colliery sidings. It owned only tank locomotives of various sizes.
This attractive little engine was built as Cardiff Railway No. 5 in 1898 by Kitsons of Leeds (works number 3799), to replace an older No. 5. With its twin, No. 6, it was inherited by the GWR in 1923, who-renumbered them 1338 and 1339. 1339 was cut up in 1934, but 1338 remained, initially in store but then loaned to Stewarts & Lloyds Ltd of Swansea during the second world war. On return it was transferred to Taunton depot in 1943 for working in Bridgwater docks, then to Swansea docks in 1960. From there it was finally withdrawn in September 1963, becoming the last withdrawal of all standard gauge locomotives absorbed into the GWR. It ran 354,000 miles in GWR and BR service, a huge mileage for such a small engine.
In April 1964, 1338 was saved from scrapping and moved to behind the up platform at Bleadon & Uphill (Somerset) station, where it could be detected amongst the bushes from passing expresses. In 1987 it was brought to Didcot, and was restored to working order, though the boiler certificate has now expired and the locomotive is on display in non-working condition.
