Lechwedd Slate Quarry loco Margaret was an 0-4-0ST built by W.G. Bagnall in 1895. In 1927 it was rebuilt as an electric loco with twin trolley pole collection for the power and a 15hp motor.

It was renamed The Eclipse, probably because 1927 was the year that an total eclipse of the sun was visible in the UK.
