That's because it is - Sharp Stewart 3519/1889, Darjeeling Himalaya Railway B class #19. As Indian State Railways # 778 it was sold to a private buyer in 1960 and it went to Hesston Steam Museum, Indiana via Illinois. It returned to the UK a few years ago - first time I've seen it and only 3 miles from home
