WTC Jane 0-4-0WT loco

The Wantage Tramway was the first in Britain to operate a passenger service by means of steam traction. Nr. 5 was a small 0-4-0 well-tank engine dating from 1857 which was built at a cost of £800 by George England & Co.of London. Originally bearing the name 'Shannon' it was purchased for the tramway in 1878. Although officially known as Engine No. 5 in the tramway records, the little engine was soon christened 'Jane' by local residents, although it never actually carried the name.

The line closed in 1945, but Nr. 5 was purchased and preserved to this day in Didcot. It is one of the oldest locomotives in the world that is still in working order.
