Pembroke & Tenby 0-6-0 Locomotives in Great_Britain


Class Details by Steve Llanso of Sweat House Media

Class Owen (Locobase 4899)

Graham Davies (members.tripod.co.uk/Graham_Davies/index-51.html) takes a brave stab at sorting out the confusion created when an earlier Davies ordered 2-4-0s and 0-6-0s for both the P&T and for the Manchester & Milford at nearly the same time. As nearly as he can reconstruct it, the first 0-6-0 of the class (works number 1712) was named Lady Elizabeth. She swapped names with the 2-4-0 Owen, which had been meant for the P&T, but ended up on the M&M instead. Davies (works number 1844) arrived in 1868.

Comparison with the Cambrian 0-6-0s shown in Locobase 20131 confirms the report that Sharp, Stewart's trio duplicated other six-coupled "Sharp Goods" produced for Furness and Cambrian Railways at the same time.

As with the Pembroke 2-4-0, rebuilding in 1887 raised boiler pressure to 140 psi, but otherwise left the basic dimensions as shown here unchanged.

The Great Western took over the P&T in 1896 and renumbered these two freight engines as 1362-1363. Both were scrapped in 1902.
