LMS Route: Rugby to Wolverhampton
Hampton in Arden Station: lnwrhia1562
Ex-LMS 4-6-0 Rebuilt Royal Scot class No 45735 'Comet' is
seen at the head of the 4 30pm New St to Euston express service on 2nd June
1957. The train had just picked up a 'pilotman' as single line was working
because of permanent way works were being carried out in the Berkswell to Tile
Hill area. The ex-LMS 4F 0-6-0 No 44302 stands in the loop line that also
provided access to Hampton in Arden goods yard which can just be seen in the
distance on the right.
