I always enjoy coming across some artefact made in Leeds in foreign partsThe Castle in North wales ( near Bangor) is well worth a visit but the small industrial railway museum in the castle was an added bonus. To my surprise about half the preserved narrow guage locos were made in Leeds.I'll try uploading a few photos More info about the locos fromhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penrhyn_Castle_Railway_MuseumAnyone else care to post photos of artefacts made in Leeds which they have found lurking in some corner of a foreign field?
It used to be said that the statue of the Black Prince had been placed in City Square , near the station, pointing South to tell all the southerners who've just got off the train to b****r off back down south!

This Hunslet made engine Hugh Napier is currently being restored at Penrhyn. Unfortunately it is behind glass and the photo has a lot of reflection.

This old Smiths Crane of Rodley really was lurking in a corner of a foreign field ( well on the wrong side of the pennines anyway) at Astley colliery Leigh Lancs ( now a museum).
