Diesel locomotive
In September 1981 the locomotive went to the Romney, Hythe &amp; Dymchurch Railway to work the school train services during the building of that railway's own mainline Diesel locomotive "John Southland". Shortly after its return to Ravenglass, in 1983, it went briefly to Britannia Park, then to the International Garden Festival railway at Liverpool from March until October 1984, hauling HM Queen Elizabeth on the Opening Day. Subsequently it also operated at the Gateshead Garden Festival from February to October 1990.
