Tile Hill Station: lnwrth2342

An unidentified ex-LMS 4-6-0 'Black 5' approaches Tile Hill with a London-bound express during 1958

An unidentified ex-LMS 4-6-0 'Black 5' approaches Tile Hill with a London-bound express during 1958. The engines in this class were known as Mickys by the young trainspotters of the day. I took all five of the pictures at Tile Hill as a 10 year old with my very basic Brownie 127 so it is perhaps remarkable that I was able to capture engines at speed.
