RPPC of Southwold Railway loco No. 1 'Southwold'

An old real photo postcard of Southwold Railway (SR) tank engine No. 1 'Southwold', the 3ft narrow gauge passenger and goods railway operated from Sep 1879 until Apr 1929. I assume the photo was taken at Southwold Station.

This RPPC shows the second No. 1 'Southwold', the first was a 2-4-0T engine built by Sharp Stewart in 1879, it was returned to them in 1883. The second engine was a 2-4-2T, built in 1893 (again by Sharp Stewart) and scrapped after the line closed in 1929.
