Snowdon Mountain Railway - a photo on Flickriver

            On the Snowdon Mountain Railway on 17 August 1989 - steam loco no. 7 "Ralph" is seen at Clogwyn. "Ralph" was built by the Swiss Locomotive& Manufacturing Co of Winterthur in 1923 (Works no 2869). 

The railway's website shows that only 4 steam locos are currently operated, but Ralph is not one of these. According to Wikipedia Ralph is "dismantled and stored off-site" and unlikely to be returned to service. The same source says that this loco was originally named "Aylwin", but was renamed "Ralph Sadler" in 1978 after the company's engineer between 1964-1977. This was later shortened to "Ralph".
