Leeds Industrial Museum last Saturday. A selection of Leeds built locomotives.
Fowler 0-4-0 diesel mechanical
Manning Wardle 0-4-0
Jack, Hunslet 0-4-0 narrow gauge
I was expecting to see Jack in steam but it looks like it's out of service judging by the uncovered steam dome.

The firebox inner of a locomotive whose fireman allowed the water level to get too low....
Driver and fireman survived the explosion.

Calder Valley line?
Digressing somewhat, but there is still a 'Transport' section on there, that features a lot of railway structures, have you ever looked at/joined?

Ah ok, I thought it was the last train on the Waverly line - A Deltic ran the very last train (a tour I think, hence the headboard), and the mills looked like something from the weaving industry down there.
A Schoolboy error anyway as on closer examination, it has its TOPs number from 1974, but, the line closed in 1969. DUR!!
As for where it is, it is a Deltic, so its probably in the east and there are Mills, so..... Yorkshire.... The..... Umm...... Aire Valley/Keighley Worth Valley...... Or similar??
By the way, the headboard says 'Trans Pennine something something' (I can't read the two words below). So, Yorkshire or Lancashire...... Probably...... The Leeds end of the Settle Carlisle??

The train has just appeared from a tunnel, a bit like it does at Halifax, only that isn't Halifax...
