According to The Island of Sodor: Its People, History and Railways, the slate quarries on the Skarloey Railway were taken over by the Ministry of Defence after their closure for the storage of ammunition. The MoD uses their own engine to shunt the sidings in the quarry, a black, electric-powered engine described as "beetle-like". Due to the highly secretive nature of its work, the engine has never been seen.
