Isle of Man Steam Railway No. 11 Maitland pictured at Port Erin June 6 1999
Stalwart of the fleet, rarely out of service, the second
of the company's 1905 locomotives was named after company director, Dalrymple
Maitland, and is fondly remembered by several generations of enthusiasts as the
longest-serving fleet member. Having been in regular service since delivery, a re-boilering in 1959 ensured her future well into the final years of company operation, through the Ailsa years and into nationalisation
No. 11 Maitland is currently withdrawn from service and
undergoing long-term re-build
