Talyllyn Railway No. 5 Midlander

Midlander was built by Ruston & Hornsby in 1940. He was bought by the Talyllyn in the late 50s to assist Sir Haydn and Edward Thomas in repairing the line. When Talyllyn and Dolgoch returned from being overhauled, he was permanently assigned to maintenance duties, and clearing up stuff from the tracks.
Rebuilt with engine, transmission and superstructure of works number 200800, re-entering service 1980.
== Trivia ==
