Talk:F. C. Hibberd & Co.

I have shown all the preserved locomotives as 0-4-0 to avoid confusion to non-technical readers. Some of them have chain drive (instead of side rods) and would be described by railway enthusiasts as "4w" (for 4 wheel). They could also be described as "B". Does Wikipedia have a policy on this?

Loco preserved in Malaysia
Anecdotal information suggests there's a Hibberd Plant 12-ton shunter in the railway museum in Johor Bahru. I cannot find any sources to confirm this -- the museum doesn't even seem to have a website -- but you might have more luck. http://searail.malayanrailways.com/KTM2008/KTM%20080124/KTM%20080124.htm

Ex-what? WW1 what?
Para 2 of lead has "exWW1", which obviously needs tidying up, but it's not quite clear to what. I assume that it means ex-military locos from the standard and/or narrow gauge railway stock built up by the British (or captured from the German) Army? If not, then...?--Verbarson (talk) 19:37, 16 October 2021 (UTC)
