9258
Fitted with a marine boiler as per the prototype engine, with feed by axle driven and hand pumps, as well as a small vertical injector of dubious efficiency.
Whilst some examples require a definite knack to fire, this one seemed remarkably eager when steamed earlier in the week, steaming freely all afternoon whilst running around the yard - there's a video of it here.
