No 16
ROBERT SNOOKS

 

Robert Snooks is mechanically similar to Jason but its appearance is inspired by the famous tank engines, the 02s, that ran on the Isle of Wight.
  The locomotive’s name commemorates the last highwayman to be hanged in England. It is finished in the black British Railways mixed traffic livery.
