Meirion
From Festipedia, hosted by the FR Heritage Group
Meirion was a Manning Wardle 0-4-0ST (builder's number 487 of 1874) that worked at the Votty And Bowydd Quarry at Blaenau Ffestiniog, probably around 1900, after being used at a colliery at Normanton in West Yorkshire. In 1915, it visited the Festiniog Railway when it was repaired at Boston Lodge workshops, although apparently it saw little use subsequently. [1]
