Meet RSH No. 7849 "Moorbarrow

Built in 1955 by Robert Stephenson & Hawthorns, Moorbarrow began its working life with the National Coal Board at Backworth Colliery, where it proudly wore a smart royal blue livery and carried the number 47. It later moved to Whittle Colliery before being preserved in 1973.

The name Moorbarrow was adopted during a visit to the North Yorkshire Moors Railway - a nod to the fictional name of Goathland Station in Pat Wilson’s books and plays.
