@McTag,

For other readers, that's in my home town.

Of Bulawayo.

@McTag,
That one was a teaser indeed.

Now, serious business.

Where can we find this loco?

Not the US, Dutchy.

It's an unexpected place for a locomotives Museum...

I'd guess South Africa.

@cicerone imposter,
It's not South Africa.

However, the man that lead to the creation of the country where our museum is, made a fortune in South Africa. His name was connected with the country where the museum is. The company he created still exists and is quite prosperous..

Another hint is that the place we are looking for was cited in my previous exchanges with McTag..

But I'm rather sure that the loco was purchased from Hudswell Clarke and not from McTag! (It's only a small class loco - but with a big name on it)

@Walter Hinteler,
That's for sure, Walter!

Do they use the term "Jack tar" in the Deutsche Marine?

Only when the marinemusikkorps Nordsee ( or Ostsee) plays Sousa's 'Jack Tar March'.

It's not fair. It was my turn. I correctly identified an insignificant little town in NW England.

So what are all these references? Rhodesia?

It's not high enough to be the Bulawayo Railway Museum.
