The loco visited the NYMR from the Kent & East Sussex Railway as part of a reciprocal trip in October 2003. No.29 Lambton tank, heading south. This locomotive was built in 1880 as number 78 Knowle and had locomotive had travelled nearly a million miles by 1923 when it came under the newly formed Southern railway. In the 1930’s it ran on the Isle of Wight railway as number 14 Bembridge until it returned in 1936 as number 2678 and worked the Hayling Island Branch until 1940 when it transferred to the Kent & East Sussex Railway on a long term loan.
