Built for the Zaragoza-Barcelona Railway as their No. 102, the company was taken over by the Northern Railway (Norte) in 1878, the locomotive then becoming No. 2582. It was inherited by RENFE in 1941 in it’s current guise.

Thirty-seven of this class were built 1863-66 by Le Creusot for the Northern Railway (Norte), this example as No. 2501, and all survived to run, from 1941, for RENFE. Except No 040-2115, all carried names for the latter.

RENFE (Oeste) 4-6-0 No. 230-2059 (760)

VR 2-8-0 No. 1103

Posted by: Russell Newman on Dec 12, 2021 @ 12:12:02
The former Finnish State Railways 5ft gauge Tk3 Class 2-8-0 No. 1103 has not been scrapped as its still intact and is looking for a new home as the owner of Summercourt Scrapyard Ltd has placed the locomotive up for sale. The scrapyard at Newquay is now closed and is being cleared and the locomotive is being offered to a good new home along with all its fittings that are stored in a container along with its tender too. No. 1103 was one of 12 steam locomotives brought to the UK from Finland in 1990 when that country’s strategic reserve was disbanded at the end of the cold war. No. 1103 was moved to the Spirit of the West American Theme Park at Retallack in Cornwall where it was on display until 2009 when the theme park went into liquidation and closed. The locomotive was moved to Summercourt Scrapyard Ltd for storage as part of a planned glamping project that sadly fell through. No. 1103 has been at Newquay for 10 years and despite the her state the locomotive is in good restorable condition and is set to go to a good home.
