Following
Howey's death in 1963, the locomotive and carriage were sold to
Harold Foster who had them transported to Canada." They ended up at Fort Steele Heritage Town
with "Dunrobin" hauling the ducal carriage for the visitors.
In 2012 it was returned to Britain
and is now being renovated at
Beamish.
More photos
of the loco and Dunrobin station can be found on
John Spenbrook's web site.
Further
information and the early history of the loco and the line on which it worked, can
be found in an article from "Railway Bylines" published in 2007.

Another
article in "Steam Railways" magazine, published at the start of
2011, has also covered the history of the locomotive together
with the plans for its repatriation.
