The locomotive had cabs at both ends and the controls were duplicated so there was no need to turn the locomotive round at each end of the route.^[2]

The Fry Collection includes a model of the locomotive.^[1] The picture of the Fry model shows a locomotive to apparently have a raised covered cab at both ends linked by the boiler with side tanks with the chimney extending though the somewhat longer cab at the front end.^[a]

Following withdrawal the number 4 was taken in 1908 by 2-6-0T No. 8 built in 1903, the number 8 then being taken a locomotive built in 1910.^[3]
