British Railways 2-10-0 Standard Class 9F No 92223 is seen standing dead outside Stratford on Avon shed on 16th August 1958

British Railways 2-10-0 Standard Class 9F No 92223 is seen standing dead outside Stratford on Avon shed on 16th August 1958. The engine, which is only a couple of months old being built at Crewe works in June 1958, has probably failed with a hot box and could have even ran into trouble when working on the former SMJ line where the class was used on the iron ore trains. As was the case with most of the class No 92223 had a very short working life being withdrawn in April 1968 from 10A Carnforth shed to be scrapped in September 1968 by Arnott & Young of Dinsdale.
