‘THE LAWNMOWER’

‘The Lawnmower’s’ time on the Talyllyn was memorable but brief.

Two years after its wheels first turned, it was dismantled and converted back into wagon form, this time as flatbed wagon No. 19.

Three years later, a Ruston & Hornsby diesel from Jee’s Quarry was donated to the railway by the Midlands Area Group.

Given the name Midlander ,thisnew locomotive took on The Lawnmower’s previous designation of No. 5.
