Ogwen
This 2ft gauge 0-4-0T built by the Avonside Engine Company in 1933, sits unrestored in the shed at Beamish. This locomotive was built for the Durham County Water Board on the construction of the Burnhope Reservoir where she was named DURHAM. In 1936 she was sold to the Penrhyn Slate Quarry at Bethesda in North Wales where she was renamed OGWEN. When steam on the quarry railways ended in 1965 this locomotive was sold to an American buyer and remained untouched until repatriated in 2012, still in original condition.
Ogwen was finally restored to full working order in October 2021 and made its debut into traffic at the Moseley Railway Trust’s Apedale Valley Light Railway that same month.
