Derelict locomotive near Mold, Flintshire (1) Standing derelict on a remnant of a standard gauge railway line in woodland near Mold, is a neglected diesel locomotive "Tin Turtle" shunter that is nearly 100 years old. It was apparently transported to its present location along the old Mold to Denbigh railway by its then private owner some years ago, where it has lain ever since. It started life as a War Dept. Light Railway locomotive which after the Great War was deemed surplus by the WD. It was then rebuilt by its manufacturer the Motor Rail & Tramcar Co. who retained its Simplex armour plating, but fitted new running gear and converted it to standard gauge for use as a low cost shunting locomotive. It was sold to Flint Paper Mill, Oakenholt in December 1919 with a 40 hp petrol engine that was replaced in 1959 with a 40 hp diesel. It was sold to Alyn Works (Synthite Ltd) in August 1965.
