Amberley Museum

A steam shunter Jim - but not as we know it. This contraption is an Irish gauge vehicle which was propelled by putting the narrow gauge Guinness engine see image 70077 inside so that one class of locomotives could work on two gauges. They were very successful and shunted both systems at the Dublin brewery for many years but the idea was not perpetuated elsewhere.
