The Quarry Hunslets of North Wales were all 0-4-0 saddle tanks designed for use on the 2' gauge quarry lines of the slate industry. They were built over a lengthy period from the 1880s until 1932.Although similar in appearance there were 8 different sub classes with small engines for use in the quarries to larger engines used on the tramways and main lines.

Many of these locomotives have been preserved and work today in museums and tourist lines across Britain.

This film looks at 23 of the 36 survivors across the country and traces the history of these wonderful little engines.
