GDAWR №9 "Bella"
Grand-Duchess Alexandra Western Railway №9 is a 2-4-0T Tank engine built in 1893 by Sharp, Stewart & Co. of Manchester, England.
№9 was built by Sharp, Stewart & Co for the Grand-Duchess Alexandra Western Railway for local trains on the mainline, though she was quickly relocated to the Titley - Smithfield Branchline as she was found to be better suited for that line as she was both quick but powerful compared to the locomotive she was replacing.
