The S160 at Haworth, Keighley & Worth Valley Railway, is presently being restored (Started 2007) Its USATC number was 5820. This is the number used by the KWVR. The loco (Tr203-474) arrived from Poland carrying an Alco boiler, the rest of the loco contains parts from both Lima and Baldwin S160's - a testimony to standardisation.
