Ashanti Goldfield Corporation
The Ashanti Goldfield Corporation operated a 2 ft (610 mm) gauge railway near Akrofuom. They used a 0-6-0 WT well tank locomotive built by Hudswell Clarke as No. 1238 of 1916. It was, however, plated as Robert Hudson, who had placed the order. Its working life ended in 1952 when it fell into a river near Akrofuom, killing its driver and was abandoned.[4]
