Pleystowe Mill No.4 Hudswell Clarke b/n 1559 of 1925 |
The webmaster's visit to Menzies Creek on 8 October 2002 found Hudswell Clarke 1559 resting in a display / workshop building.
This locomotive was built by Hudswell, Clarke & Co. Ltd of Leeds, England as their Builder's No.1559 of 1925 and operated at the Pleystowe Mill, where it was No.4 on their locomotive roster. a
Pleystowe Mill No.4 is now an exhibit at the Puffing Billy Preservation Society's museum at Menzies Creek. b
