Jean Anderson

Jean Anderson is a small steam engine that works some of the passenger and demonstration trains at the Model Engineers Society. She is owned by Casey.

History
Built in Scotland in 2004, Jean Anderson is a replica of a Kerr Stuart Wren. She was bought by Casey when Lady Grange was out of service for a small overhaul. At first the Society was expecting a large loco but when they saw the actual size of Jean, they thought her to be quite useless to the railway's operation. But it wasn't until Puffa's batteries ran flat while covering a train from Betty when her fire bars dropped. Jean was the only engine available and so she rescued the train and was quite powerful, worked the rest of the day's run. Now no one makes fun of the little engine.

Jean Anderson is used on occasions when Lady Grange is out of use or when a spare engine is needed.

Livery
Jean Anderson is painted in two shades of Humbrol green paint. Her name plates are brass with a red backing.
