Angus Kaybill was built in 1926 by W.G Bagnall and he worked at a copper mine in Cornwall. The copper mine was very rich so the company never closed at the time. Eventually in 1961 he was sold off to the Joon Lake Riverside railway on the isle of Solton. And hauled trains down from Kirkcolm to the Slate & Coal transfer at Joon station. He still worked on the railway today. Walter was built in 1916 by the Baldwin Locomotive works and was shipped of to the UK later that year. He worked on a small industrial line. The line soon closed in 1965 and he stayed in storage until 1972 when he was donated to the Joon railway. The guys at the work decided to do some modifacations to him by giving him cowcatchers and a bell. He still works there today In 1984. The Joon railway would be needing another engine. So They asked the Talyllyn railway if they could borrow some blueprints of a locomotive as the Talyllyn & the Joon were good friends. So the Talyllyn sent some blueprints of a locomotive. It was a set of blueprints on what was meant to be the Talyllyn's future No.7 which was still being constructed at the time. Eventually in 1985 work began on the engine. And in 1987 the engine rolled out of the Joon works and was given the name "Misha" the bishop of Ashtonburg took part in naming the engine. She did a trail run on a passenger train. And she's been running ever since
@trainengineshops & Ahrails for helping me name Misha
