Twizell is one of world's few remaining locomotives built by Robert Stephenson & Co - in 1891 in Newcastle upon Tyne.   Twizell is owned by Beamish Museum, but on loan to the Tyneside Locomotive Museum Trust - whose collection has a focus on locomotives built and/or worked in the North East of England.
