      Description: Fenton's Salmon River mill workers standing on the Harlot locomotive in Circular Head, Tasmania. "Harlot" the converted Ransome steam lorry was one of the most unusual locomotives to operate on the Circular Head, Tasmania tramways. It worked for Fenton's and the Circular Head Amalgamated Timber Co on the tramway serving the Salmon River sawmills. This engine survived until the Marrawah line was closed and was finally cut up in Smithton about 1959.
