Harbury Cement Works: misc_hcw172
Thought to be the last steam locomotive on site, 0-6-0ST
Cunarder stands derelict at the closed Harbury Cement Works. This
locomotive was built by Hunslet Engine Company Ltd of Leeds in 1931, but was
transferred to the Harbury Works sometime after 1947. In 1966, R Evans of the
Warwickshire Railway Society produced a review of the remaining industrial
steam locomotives in the Midlands. He identified that Cunarder was
the only steam locomotive left on the Harbury Cement Works, where it was acting
as spare motive power to a diesel locomotive and was steamed once a week on
Mondays.
