Taffy
From Festipedia, hosted by the FR Heritage Group
Taffy was a Vulcan Foundry 0-4-0T (possibly builder's number 810 of 1878) that worked at the Votty And Bowydd Quarry at Blaenau Ffestiniog from 1880. In 1913, it visited the Festiniog Railway possibly not for the first time) when it was repaired at Boston Lodge workshops. [1][2]
The Vulcan Foundry website has a picture of number 810 of 1878 called "Kelso", built for Braich Quarry.
