GWR Route: Banbury to Wolverhampton

Leamington Shed: gwrls2051

British Railways Standard Class 4MT 2-6-4T No 80072 stands outside the shed on 13th March 1965. The reason why the name TINKER BELL has been chalked on the smoke box is now long forgotten. The locomotive only had a few months left in service when this photograph was taken. It was first moved to 6D Shrewsbury shed during the week ending 19th June 1965 only to be condemned just over a month later during week ending 24th July 1965.
