Nº 1973 0-4-0ST "Dora"

This sturdy Avonside 0-4-0 was ordered by Manchester Corporation in January 1927 for use at Barton Power Station. The locomotive was made redundant when the power station closed in 1968, moving to the Keithly & Worth Valley Railway. In 1973 it moved to Market Overton and then finally to Cottesmore in 1979.

Dora is seen passing Pitsford Sidings Signalbox.
