The Baldwin 590 is seen at Dinas Junction, 1923, shortly after being delivered to the railway. The England-built Little Giant (left) shows the diminutive size of the Festiniog engines which had been imposed on them by restrictive tunnels on that line.

During the time when it was facing south towards Portmadoc (as seen here), the Baldwin had a black livery. In 1934, it was turned to face Dinas and its livery was changed to red (sometimes reported as reddish-brown).
