A bit of a different placement - on the road !!

 

Dean Forest Railway's slope tanked prairie 5541 crossing the road up from Lydney Docks and just entering Lydney Junction.

 

Edited to correct description to prairie.

Going thro' some pics taken during various cruises over the past few years, I came up with this interesting loco ( and interesting valve gear ?). Cant remember where it was, it wasn't noted at the time, but could be one of the Canary Islands, taken from our cabin balcony - possibly (?), and no idea what the origin of the loco was, but think it may be a Henschel ?

It is a Henschel, one of five built in 1924 and shipped over to Tenerife to help pull stone from a quarry near Santa Cruz de Tenerife during construction of the port. It's the only survivor and is on display at Highway Carretera de San Andrés.
