Rogart Shunter

Nick Chamberlain · Rogart Shunter

Last week I went on a trip from Inverness to Wick. Whilst passing Rogart station I was intrigued to see a couple of sidings containing 2 Mk2 (I think) coaches & a small shunter numbered 8016. I can't find any info on the site on the web, nor can I find any reference to a shunter with this number. Anyone know anything?

I've gotta say Nick, you didn't look very hard Rolling Eyes

This will be the beastie you are asking about. What kind of shunter it is though, i don't know.

The two MK2 coaches are used as holiday accomodation, aswell as another coach they have on site.

That's the one - point taken about my lack of determination in google searching!! It's such a fascinating little place to find a wee shunter, any background info on it's origin would be most interesting.
