Talyllyn Railway No. 7 Tom Rolt

Tom Rolt is a narrow-gauge locomotive constructed by the Talyllyn Railway from a different engine of the same class.
==History==
The first Tom Rolt was built for work at Bord na Móna in Ireland as a 0-4-0WT. It was one of three locomotives to be narrow gauge, and was originally number one, but later renumbered 43. However, the Talyllyn Railway needed another locomotive as Talyllyn wasn't doing so well at the time. In 1969, the 0-4-0WT was bought to use parts for the current Tom Rolt. He is named after L.T.C. Rolt. He is now currently numbered seven and continues his work to this day.
== In Fiction ==
In The Railway Series by The Reverend W. Awdry, Ivo Hugh is based on this locomotive.
