Old Milverton Lineside Views: lnwr_oldmil1446b
Close up of image 'lnwr_oldmil1446' showing a single-plank flat
wagon with the L&NWR diamond marking lying beneath the wreckage. To the
left of this wagon, out of view, was a LNWR 'loco' wagon used to transporting
coal to Milverton shed. Harry Jack in his RCTS book 'LNWR locomotives of the
LNWR Southern Division' records that in 1855 there were six locomotives at
Milverton, two of them being spare. Before opening it had been estimated that
only one engine would be required but this quickly turned out to be an
underestimate.
