Fresh from the Rustenberg Platinum Mines, No 4 is unloaded at the Welsh Highland Railway in 1982.

Sitting in No5 Road at Gelerts Farm (now occupied by fellow exSouth African locomotive NG15 No 120) No 4 looks very forlorn.

Bagnall 3050 was officially named 'Gelert' in 1992.

Here, 'Gelert' leaves the shed at Gelerts Farm, and prepares to take a loaded train out of Porthmadog Station.

7 Years later and nothing much has happened, apart from being painted Black, and moved into No1 Road.

The Locomotive in front is its sister from Rustenberg No3, Bagnal 3023.

Another 2 years and a lot has happened, stripped down the frames are seen inside the 'Big Shed' at Gelert's Farm.

Some time later, and the boiler is placed into a Hudson Bogie Wagon.

For its first Steam test. Happily this test was past, and restoration continued.

Fresh from the Rustenberg Platinum Mines, No 4 is unloaded at the Welsh Highland Railway in 1982.

Having made repairs to the boiler, the next major job is re-tubing it.
