History
Dundee and Newtyle Railway 0-2-4

This is a most unusual wheel arrangement, with the only known examples being three locomotives supplied to the 4ft 6in Dundee and Newtyle Railway by J and C Carmichael of Dundee in 1833.[1][2] These were still in operation in 1847, but may have been scrapped in 1849 when the line was converted to the standard gauge.
