South Durham Malleable No 5 Train, Beamish Open Air Museum
Description
South Durham Steel and Iron Co Malleable No 5 0-4-0ST. It is believed that this locomotive was built 1873 by the South Durham Steel and Iron Co. at their Grange works in Stockton. Another theory is that it was built at Grange Iron Co at Belmont in county Durham. It may have been built using a mix of parts from other engines or the general spares stock and it is likely that some of the parts came from a Black, Hawthorn Co locomotive. It became Malleable No 5. It would spend all its working life at the South Durham Malleable steelworks on Teeside and remained in use until about 1918. The boiler on the locomotive is thought to be a replacement built by Robert Stephenson & Hawthorn in the 1950s.
