Foleshill Railway: miscfr006a

Close up of image 'miscfr006' showing the 0-4-0ST at the head of the short train carrying the 15 inch gun barrel and the special four-bogie wagon attached at this end. The transporter wagons in most of the views whatever their type appear to be owned by the Midland Railway. As in the Second World War, Britain's railways were taken under the government's control and all wagons were consequently pooled. C1916
