Annie (locomotive)
''Annie'' is a steam locomotive that operates on the Groudle Glen Railway on the Isle of Man.
==Design==
The replica ''Annie'' was built by Richard Booth to the design of a Bagnall class 'E' 0-4-2T tank locomotive named ''Annie'' which was built in 1911 and shipped to New Zealand to operate the Gentle Annie Tramway near Napier. The original ''Annie'' later ended up at a quarry at Motuhora along with another Bagnall engine from the Gentle Annie Tramway, and was buried on the site by a landslide in the late-1950s/early 1960s. Dug up in the late 1970s, the remains of ''Annie'' passed through several owners, and are now owned by the East Coast Museum of Technology at Makaraka near Gisborne, who have prepared what remains of the engine for static display..
The replica ''Annie'' was constructed based upon working drawings; mechanically identical to ''Polar Bear'' but with a 0-4-2 wheel arrangement. The cylinder mould was obtained from the Bennett Brook Railway in Australia, where another replica ''Annie'' had been built. The two replicas are both 2' (610mm) gauge whereas the original ''Annie'' was built to run on 2' 6" (762mm) gauge tracks.
