The second locomotive was Hunslet No.520, built in 1890, an 0-4-2T named St. Molaga, which under the classification adopted by the Great Southern Railways on amalgamation in 1925 became the sole representative of Class L6.
This locomotive, along with a third Hunslet, Argadeen, passed to the GSR on amalgamation in 1925. It passed to Córas Iompair Éireann at the 1945 nationalisation and was withdrawn in 1949.
