Fowler 4160001 is a 0-4-0DM shunter, built in 1952 at Leeds.
Powered by a McLaren diesel, she is the prototype for her class.
“Persil” worked at the soap works of Joseph Crosfield & Sons at Warrington until 1971, when she was donated to Steamport, arriving in 1972 as the first exhibit, before the museum was actually open.

John Fowler 0-4-0 DM No 16038 aka "Andy"

Built Leeds 1923 as prototype Petrol powered shunter. Was delivered to Blackburn gas works the same year where it remained till the 1950s when it was sold to ICI. It was around this point the original American built petrol engine was replaced with a Gardner Diesel engine. During the Mid 60s the loco was acquired by Bush sons of Alfreton where it was used at various local sites including Britain pit.

The engine entered preservation during the 1970s and was stored at normanton barracks Derby, unfortunately while stored all brass fittings were stolen as well as its final drive. Andy was later moved to the midland railway, ownership was transferred from Ian Wheatley to Ian Oldham with restoration starting soon after. All work stopped on the loco in 2004, by this point all that was required was the missing final drive. The engine has been stored behind the historic carriage and wagon shed since. Mr Adam Asling acquired the locomotive in 2012. Plans for 2017 are to remove the loco from behind the shed and commence a full restoration

Typically curved Fowler canopy and nicely signwritten
The brasswork on the chimney plate says "Ayr County Council Highways Department" and I presume that the coat of arms is also Ayr CC.
