What is it?

Hey there! Have you heard about the awesome replica of a steam engine from 1840 in the Victorian Transfer Shed? It's called Fire Fly and it's like a time machine that can whisk you back to the days of the Victorians. Picture all the exciting adventures you could have riding on that old-fashioned train! You can even climb into the Second and Third Class carriages to see exactly how the Victorians used to travel. It's like stepping into a history book! And guess what? You can also compare Fire Fly with its younger counterpart, Iron Duke. It's like a fun game of spot the difference between the two engines. Cool, right? Learning about history has never been so exciting!
