Cadbury No 14

Cadbury No 14 The 20 ton diesel locomotive began its working life in 1957 at the Cadbury factory in Moreton. It was designed to look like the rest of the Cadbury fleet, many of which were steam trains. Its job was to move products, packaging and finished goods around the factory. When in working condition its top speed was 14mph and it could haul 200 tons! In 1978 the train was temporarily relocated to the Llangollen Railway Society, then returned to Moreton before arriving at Bournville in February 2007. Cadbury No 14 was donated to Cadbury by Burton's Foods who now operate from Moreton.
