The 18inch gauge former John Knowles Ltd Hunslet built 0-4-0WT "Jack" is back in service following completion of its overhaul at the Statfold Barn Railway at Tamworth in Staffordshire. Which is to be its home for the foreseeable future as the Leeds Industrial Museum have placed it on long term loan to them. "Jack" can be seen running on Statfold s 18inch gauge line that runs between Tram station and Oak Tree there on open days.
