417 Invicta was briefly resident on the SVR between 1972 and 1975.
This 0-4-0ST locomotive was built by Andrew Barclay & Sons of Kilmarnock as Works No 2220 of 1946. It was delivered new to the Royal Navy Dockyard in Chatham, Kent, where it given the number 417.
The locomotive worked at Chatham until 1972, when it was sold and moved to the SVRat [[Bridgnorth]]. The locomotive was steamed on arrival and recorded 4 miles in use during 1972, but no further mileage was recorded before the locomotive left in spring of 1975.
After spells at other railways including Chasewater and Long Marston, the locomotive returned to the Chatham Historic Dockyard Railway in 2009.
