One of Peckett's standard R4 class locmotives, this engine was built in 1952 for Crane Ltd, Nacton Heath Works, Ipswich.  After 18 years work there it was purchased by a group of enthusiasts and stored at a farm in Suffolk.  Little restoration work was done and it suffered exposure to the weather until purchased by a QRS member in 1974.  It was moved to Quainton, and restoration work started.  The intention was for it to remain in the lined green Peckett livery, and was to be named James after the owners son.

Originally James left for private location in Nottinghamshire in 1982, before moving to the Pallot Heritage Steam Museum, Jersey. James has carried the number 60130 during preservaton, and is now named Kestrel.
