Robin Hood Collieries
An early 1960s view of a 4 wheel petrol powered chain driven loco at Robin Hood Colliery, appropriately in Robin Hood village on the A61 trunk road between Wakefield and Leeds. I have no idea of the builder but there is a possible builders plate and what looks like a plaque on the cabside. The far buffer on the left is drooping, no doubt from a heavy shunt.
