Steam emerges from the new build James Spooner after its first fire is lit

The new James Spooner will be the seventh locomotive to be built by the Festiniog Railway Company in its workshops at Boston Lodge, and the seventh FR Double Fairlie. The building of the new locomotive was announced in 2016 and will be a replacement for Earl of Merioneth.

This locomotive takes its name from an earlier FR engine which was named after the company's first manager.
