A Highland identity anchored to a museum object
Glasgow Museums catalogues No. 103 as the Jones Goods, built in 1894 at the Atlas Works in Springburn. The museum describes the class as the first 4-6-0 wheel arrangement used in Britain. This is object and design evidence; a specific Highland route, allocation or train needs its own dated source.
