British Railways (SR) – ‘A1X Class’ 0-6-0T No. 32646 (’46 Newington’, 646, 734, W2, & ‘Freshwater’) Terrier taken at Hayling Island Station just arrived from Havant on 22/08/1953.

            The London, Brighton and South Coast Railway (LB&SCR) A1 Class is an English class of 0-6-0T steam locomotive. Designed by William Stroudley, 50 members of the class were built in 1872 and between 1874 and 1880, all at Brighton Works. The class has received several nicknames, initially being known as "Rooters" by their south London crews. However, the engines were more famously known as "Terriers" on account of the distinctive 'bark' of the exhaust beat.  

A1X (Terrier) Class 0-6-0T No. W2 ‘Freshwater’ (46 ‘Newington’, 646, 734, W2, W8 ‘Freshwater’ & BR No.32646) designed by William Stroudley, built in 1877 at Brighton Works and rebuilt to A1X in 1932.

Sold to LSWR March 1903. Sold for £900 to Freshwater, Yarmouth and Newport Railway in March 1914. To Southern Railway on 1 September 1923 and BR(S) on Nationalisation. Withdrawn 1963. Sold for £750 to Sadler Railcar Company, Droxford. Sold to Brickwoods Brewery, Portsmouth in May 1966. Displayed on a plinth outside the ‘Hayling Billy’ pub on Hayling Island until June 1979.
