The Wellsworth and Suddery Railway was one of the three railways that became part of the North Western Railway. After it was annexed to the NWR, it became Edward's Branch Line. It is recorded in The Island of Sodor: Its People, History and Railways that it had four 0-6-0 tank engines of its own. The railway opened in 1870, so assumedly at least two date back to this period, though it is not known if they helped build the line or whether it was performed by contractor's locomotives. All four still existed by the time of the 1914 grouping though. No further mention of them is made, but with the later NWR push-pull trains supplementing the branch line it might be assumed that they have been scrapped or at least relocated.
