Chevalier is an ex-Admiralty 0-6-2T locomotive which has been used on the Whipsnade Zoo railway.  It visited the W&LLR in 1991 and the pictures where are taken at the Gala that year. 

It has recently been on the railway for a extended period of storage and testing but is deemed not suitable for the railway to use regularly.
