In 1905 the Highland Railway built four tank engines to work on its small branch lines. Numbered 25, 40, 45 and 46, they were the last locomotives to be built at the company's Lochgorm works in Inverness. Two of the class survived well into the days of British Railways. This photograph shows BR 55053 (previously HR45). It continued in service until withdrawn in January 1957. It was the last HR engine in service.
