This loco is a Keef K40. It spent its working life with National Grid in the Woodhead cable tunnels in the high Pennines, running between Lancashire and somewhere else. It is much loved at Apedale as the main works shunter – easy access, a comfy seat, simple controls and sure starting. However, the cosmetic condition is not all is should be. So, one of the team is bringing the loco up to the condition it should be in. The problem is getting the loco stood still long enough to work on.
