Interestingly there were technically 3 Heywood locos at the event as ‘River Irt’ was rebuilt out of an old Heywood loco called ‘Muriel’ which is even older than the original Katie! So there was: Katie (Original) Katie (Replica) Muriel (Rebuilt as River Irt)
For those unsure, the ‘Katie’ tank engine with the glossy smoke box is the original, whilst the one with the matte smoke box is the replica.

MUST get one of these - as soon as I can find an estate!!
thanks for uploading It looked a great gala
If I ever own an estate in the hills of Hong Kong, I'll be having one of these trains.
Very great video from the gala :)
Amazing
Great video
That little American one looks more like 7 1/2" gauge.
It's a Heywood reunion! So were there three different engines all called Katie? There's potential for confusion.
Yes there were three Katies, the Heywood original and the replica, as well as the KLR’s own tender loco.
