The loco (unidentified here) was built by Andrew Barclay, Sons & Co., in Kilmarnock in 1905, and was scrapped in Campbeltown in 1933 after it had assisted in the demolition of its little railway. What a waste. The Campbeltown & Machrihanish Light Railway was Scotland's only narrow gauge, passenger carrying railway. From 1905 to 1932, it ran nearly 6 miles from Campbeltown, across the Kintyre peninsular to Machrihanish. Because of its location, it was very remote from the rest of Scotland's network of railways.
