<p>Entering service with the LB&amp;SCR as No. 78 Knowle, the locomotive was moved into storage by the Southern Railway in September 1935. When the Isle of Wight Railway found itself with a shortage of light engines, Knowle was overhauled, fitted with an extended bunker and shipped to the island in May 1929, taking the number W4 and the name Bembridge. Push-pull equipment was fitted and the Terrier worked the lighter lines out of Newport, being renumbered as W14 in April 1932. </p> <p>The opening of a bigger 26ft turntable at Bembridge in 1936 allowed heavier 0-4-4T O2 locomotives to work the smaller lines and W14 Bembridge became surplus to requirements, being returned to the mainland in May that year.</p> <h3>Specification </h3> <ul> <li>Item Scale: 1:76 Scale 00 Gauge</li> <li>Finish: Painted</li> <li>Colour: Green</li> <li>DCC status: DCC Ready 6 pin socket</li> <li>Minimum radius curve: 1st Radius</li> <li>Motor: 3 Pole Skew wound</li> <li>Coupling: NEM / Tension lock</li> <li>Operator: SR</li> <li>Designer: William Stroudley</li> <li>Wheel arrangement: 0-6-0T</li> </ul>
