View shows the steam engine 'Elidir' built by the Hunslet Engine Company in 1899 which has been preserved and is in use at the Llanberis Lake Railway in North Wales. It was originally named Enid when it was delivered new to the Dinorwic Quarry in Wales, but later took the name of Red Damsel after a racehourse. It was taken out of use at the Quarry in 1957 and was in a dismantled state when purchased by the Lake Railway in 1969, but was given a complete overhaul and was renamed Elidir, after the mountain which gave rise to the quarry. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Hunslet Engine Company steam engine railway locomotive train | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
