Brillaint footage, is the Kettle or british origin?? Looks like a cross between a peckett/ hunslett and a stroudly design...

@08600ng02shunter Thank You, you are correct, the kettle is of 'British' origin, but I don't have any info on it.

@08600ng02shunter you aren't far of saying its like a cross between a peckett and a hunslet, it is infact an Avonside. She was built in 1925 at Bristol and worked her life at Buxton Lime. The loco was brought over to Belgium in the 80's, restored and worked the line at Maldegem till 2002. She then went out of traffic for a overhaul and returned in 2009.

@chrisV8 Thank you for that info, Chris.
