Summary

Description
English: Statfold Barn Railway - Orenstein & Koppel locomotives. A pair of 2' 6" gauge locomotives from the Pakis Baru sugar mill. The lead one is a Mallet articulated compound. Built in 1905 as No. 1473 by Orenstein & Koppel (Berlin) and is of 0-4-4-0 T configuration. This worked in Java and is now a runner on this private railway on the Staffordshire/Warwickshire border.

The railway is actually mixed 2' and 2' 6" gauge and, as far as known, these two are the only workable 2' 6" gauge locos there. This is a private railway and visits are by invitation only.

Martin Murray commented on a similar photo: "O&K 1473/05 from Pakis Baru sugar mill in Java, now preserved at Statfold. Not a Meyer, but a Mallet. O&K built over 200 Mallets (mostly B'Bt like this one), but only four Meyers, all C'C't of the same design, 600mm gauge. The first went to the Chilean Military in 1927, the other three were a follow-on order, but were not delivered because of the war. They were sent to occupied Poland, and after 1945 saw service with the PKP, but no later than about 1960."
