The locomotive is Fowler 9460. It came from Fiji to Whitney Brothers in California in 1963. The two owned by Hulman in Indiana (9463 & 9465) have reportedly been scrapped.

I believe the loco at Aberystwyth is Fowler 10249, Lautoka Mill number 6.

I have JF 9465 as returned to the UK a few years ago; it is on a private site at Capel Bangor near Aberystwyth in Wales. I have not been able to examine the loco to confirm its identity since it is locked in a shed; it is visible through a crack in the doors! Another similar JF also came to the USA from Fiji - this was JF 9463. I wonder if there is some confusion between the two locos. I cannot find any reference to any other JF locos currently in the USA.
