'Tinkerbell' looks to be a McLaren, I think that it may be what was known as the 'Hungarian' type, possibly for direct traction ploughing, I think that it has a feed water heater ahead of the cylinder, but that is just guess work.

Isn’t that what Collosus used to be?

I think that 'Collosus' is a tandem compound, however I believe that one of the 'Hungarian' type was scrapped some 30 plus years ago to provide a cylinder for 'Lionheart/Gigantic' which is now fitted with a 'Newley' cast (ten years ago?) Cylinder down in Sussex.
