Jennifer is an 0-6-0 tank locomotive built by Hudswell Clarke & Co in 1942. It spent its working life as Samuel Fox & Co Ltd's no. 20. It has been donated to Llangollen Railway Trust Ltd., and was moved to the line from Winson Engineering of Daventry in 2001. The Trust is funding restoration as finances permit.
