Ruston and Hornsby 326058

The small shunter is a former narrow gauge industrial shunter which worked at the Clay Cross quarry in Crich. After withdrawal it was preserved but did not have to move very far, to the National Tramway Museum at Crich to be exact! The shunter was re-gauged to standard gauge and is used for shunting and as a works vehicle on the museum's tram network.
