The Craigievar Express

What an amazing contraption, driven very gingerly by Postie Lawson who went on to develop a version with a cabin with windows which functioned as a sort of mobile sorting office. He once told Sir Ewan Forbes of Craigievar that the fire-box and boiler "came off a little boatie that plied the River Thames".
