WARNING THIS THING HAS NOT BEEN TEST PRINTED!
Genevieve & co.'s first class of tender locomotive, known as the "River Class" they started out with works no. 12
Draig yr Afon Droellog Welsh for, The Meandering River's Dragon built in 1903 and working on the Blue Belle line until it closed in 1949, he survived mostly intact in a barn near the railway's terminus until 1953 when he was disassembled and his boiler was used as a pump at a nearby freshwater spring.
The most famous of the pair by far where works no. 20 and works no.255 built in 1904 and 1917. No. 20 was built for the rebuilt Bryn Bach Light Railway for the final steps of rebuilding the railway and running it as their main locomotive and poster child, being used on the railway's logo until it closed, after reopening after a flood in 1902. Golden Goose was used for passenger mail, and fast goods services, She was the backbone of the railway until around 1910 when other large locomotives started to be brought in to deal with the increasing workload. In 1917 a copy of Goose was built, named night owl, he took over the bulk of the night mail and slow passenger work on the line. Both locomotives had continued their duties from arrival on the railway up until it closed on the 15th of September 1962. they where kept under tarp in the engine sheds at Porthladd Yng Nghwm Dooeyeye until they where sold on for scrap on the 8th of November 1963, thankfully the Bryn Bach Steam Railway Preservation Society of Fluaw Drus (later shortened to The Bryn Bach Steam Railway Preservation Society) saved the pair on the 9th of June 1964 after an emergency fundraiser and outrage from the locals. they where heavily worn out and had to have major overhauls. in 1969 the pair returned to steam being used for the short lived Port Flyer until it ended in 1974. they have been reliable engines up until present day, even if both, but Goose in particular have started to show their age with Goose soon needing a new boiler as she is beginning to struggle to raise steam. An overhaul is planned for both engines in 2029.
