Maid Marian is 0-4-0 saddle tank locomotive built in 1903. However, the loco, bought by the Maid Marian Locomotive Fund in 1965 and which has been on the Bala Lake Railway since 1975 has the frames and many of the numbered parts of King of the Scarlets (HE 492 of 1889) because Dinorwic Quarries swapped components around when major overhauls took place. | |

The Maid Marian Locomotive Fund was formed in 1965 by a small group of enthusiasts to preserve a working locomotive from the Dinorwic Slate Quarry in North Wales. | |
