Córas Iompair Éireann No. CC1 generally known as the Turf Burner was a prototype 0-6-6-0 articulated steam locomotive designed by Oliver Bulleid to burn turf (an Irish term for peat used as fuel) and built at CIÉ’s Inchicore Works in Dublin. CC1 shared some but not all of the characteristics of Bulleid’s previous attempt to develop a modern steam locomotive the Leader. Like the one completed Leader CC1 had a relatively short career and was never used in front-line service.
