Developments of the West Clare's 0-6-0 tanks with larger fireboxes -- Dubs works # 2890-2892. The other two were named Saint Senan and Lady Inchiquin. The first left service in 1959, but was preserved. Saint Senan was scrapped in December 1956. Lady Inchiquin had a much shorter life, being scrapped in 1922.
