This one was once owned by Col. Elliott Springs, president of the Lancaster & Chester in South Carolina, and also a local textile mill the RR served. He also had a minature RR of the same name in a local park in the 1950s, with three Cagneys. I think they were originally built for the Jamestown Exibition of about 1904:http://www.narrow-gauge.co.uk/gallery/show.php?image_id=1189&cat_id=84

Even more amazing are the two Cagney coaches at Rhyl, at least one of which is original Cagney work found by owner Simon Townsend at a South American theme park. I believe the other is a replica (and a darn good one).

There were three L&C Cagneys. The other two are still in South Carolina -- one is in the L&C Museum in Lancaster. After the park closed, two of them went to North Carolina. The one now in England was disassembled for restoration. Simon Townsend bought it sight-unseen when the owner died and his estate was auctioned. The other was purchased at the auction by a L&C employee; it now resides under a tarp in his back yard. The third engine lived in the L&C enginehouse in Lancaster for several years before being moved across the tracks to the old depot, which is the L&C offices downstairs and a museum and model railroad upstairs.Col. Springs was quite a character. He named a bunch of celebrities as "vice presidents," including his favorite, Gypsy Rose Lee. She was "Vice President of Unveiling." There are some photos floating around of Lee posing with the minitature trains. I vaguely recall seeing one with her (in a '40s bikini) at the controls of one of the engines. The L&C's Springs Park railway was considered the L&C's "narrow guage division." The Cagneys were numbered in with the standard gauge steam engines. Hurricane Hugo provided an excuse to close Springs Park. Since the death of Col. Springs it had gone downhill and experienced a dramatic change of clientel. I never had a chance to get up there, I didn't learn of the park's existance until after it closed. The main gate is still visible on SC 200 just north of Great Falls, SC. I've talked to some folks who have trespassed in there, but have never had the guts to do so myself.
