This class of Diesel locomotives were built in the late 1950s/Early 1960s. This example 03 179 was based on the Isle of Wight for many years before leaving in 1996. Entering preservation and immaculately restored,it has returned to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway in 2025 for at least 10 x years.© Fuggletim

The Class A1 “Terriers” were designed by William Stroudly and built for the London Brighton and South Coast Railway (LBSCR) in the 1870s. Known for their diminutive size, distinctive exhaust and strength, several have entered preservation. This one spent a few bizarre years as a pub sign on the Mainland on Hayling Island!
