Post subject:  Replica Hunslet steaming in Alabama

See below link for an interesting write-up at steamrailroading dot com

During August a Mr. Ken Zadnichck of Silverhill, AL took delivery of a replica 2-foot gauge Hunslet 0-4-2T for use on his "Wales West Light Railway" located at his still-being-developed luxury RV resort.

The article states that the locomotive was built from plans supplied by the Leeds Industrial Museum in England and was constructed over a 3 year period by the Exmoor Steam Railway, also in England. The replica's cost was $125,000, less shipping (which seems to me to be quite reasonable for something like this).

Pretty neat little chooch!
