Coupling up at Stonehenge Works Station. On the left is No. 3 Rishra - an 0-4-0T by Baguley Cars Ltd of Burton on Trent, No. 2007 of 1921. This has a circular firebox boiler and a radial valve gear. It was built for Calcutta Corporation and used for a short working life at a waterworks 15 miles north of Calcutta. It is the only surviving Baguley steam locomotive. To the right is Jennie a Hunslet copy of a Kerr, Stuart 'Wren' class 0-4-0ST and built at Statfold Barn as works No. 3905 in 2005 (according to the plate, although the Amerton website claims it was completed in 2008).
