Edited by Teuchter added some notes for context
Maybe this picture will help with a scratch build.
Some context on the picture. My grandfather is standing on the right and he served with the Lovat Scouts in Gallipoli, Egypt and the Palestine then at some point he joined the Royal Engineers ( Corp of Rail and Waterways) on the Western front. After the War he stayed behind to work at the St Quentin Railway station until 1920. I believe from the notes in French that this picture was taken in Northern France after the war but have no evidence to back that up.
I summited the picture below to the folks at https://www.steamlocomotive.info/about.cfm who were kind enough to share pictures of the Manning Wardle armoured loco and a link that lead me to this thread.
Information/photos wanted on MW petrol locomotives
