McGiverns Gigantic Pleasure Fairs Fowler B6 registered DP 4418.  Decorated in a dark crimson with contrasting white roof and matt black body masking, No. 14425 ‘Carry On’ has a red roof underside and masses of gold trim.  A mottled gravel texture finish also creates an authentic feel to the wheels.

Historical facts indicate that No. 14425 was originally produced in 1914 to haul Howitzer guns in France during the First World War.  Hence the name ‘Carry On’ perhaps!  It was converted to a Showmans Engine in 1923 with one of the subsequent owners being McGiverns Gigantic Pleasure Fairs in Northern Ireland, even taking part in a St Patrick’s Day Parade in 1959. Latterly it has been returned to the mainland and restored.  No. 14425 ‘Carry On’ is now part of the Saunders collection.
