Velinheli At King's Cross 11/02/2018, Jim Hewett.

Velinheli is an ex-Dinorwic Quarry Hunslet 0-4-0ST; the first of the Hunslet "Alice" class of locos she was built in 1886 (Works No. 409). The loco is normally based on the Launceston Steam Railway in Cornwall.

In 2018 it was announced that Velinheli would be moving to the F&WHR where a new boiler will be constructed for it at Boston Lodge. The move to Wales was made via Kings Cross in London where Velinheli spent February half term week on display alongside Hugh Napier and Carriage 10.
