Is this a rare beastie or modified?

I thought that all the externally fired R/H locos were on meths.

It seems in nice shape though for its age.

Looks like a Gratech burner to me.

I did recieve an email yesterday about it. It read --

Lady Anne was first introduced in 1982. This loco has the later full cab and would have been manufactured between 1984 - 1988 ( In 1988 it was changed from an 0-4-0 to a 0-6-0). Roundhouse did offer it in 1984 as an option with external gas firing but very few were produced by them. Subsequently the gas firing option was taken over by Gratech Services. I bought my meths fired Lady Anne in 1988 and the Roundhouse Instructions which came with the loco, referred to a kit being available from Gratech to fit gas firing if required. Whether meths or gas fired, these early 0-4-0 Lady Annes are lovely locos !!
