Ex-Queens Pier Stock

The Hibberd Planet locomotive was also used in connection with the lifting of the Peel Line and Ramsey Lines on loan from the Harbour Board where it was also employed on passenger duties on the Queen's Pier in Ramsey. The unit remains operational and on occasion is used by the pier restoration trust during open days, spending the remainder of its time at Jurby Transport Museum, fitted with steam outline bonnet and cab.

This unit was built to operate the pier tramway in Ramsey as a second source of motive power to the existing Hibbert Planet locomotive, and was used in 1975 in connection with lifting the rails on the closed lines, and thereafter on some permanent way duties until 1980 when it was dismantled.  Today the remains are stored in the workshops at Douglas Station, consisting of the main frame, wheels and transit set only.
