The Epping Ongar heritage railway has acquired a Rolls-Royce powered locomotive, originally designed for use in an iron ore mine, showcasing its historical significance.
This locomotive is an important piece of London Transport's traction history from the 1970s, having been repurposed from the original iron ore mining operations.
The locomotive may appear at the Epping Ongar Railway's diesel gala from 20th to 22nd September, contingent upon successful repairs and training.
The acquisition reflects a commitment to preserving transportation heritage and continuing the legacy of London Transport's unique engineering feats.
