LMS Route: Rugby to Tamworth
Trent Valley Lineside: lnwr_tvl4455
Ex-LMS 4-6-0 Jubilee Class No 45613 'Kenya' is seen heading
a northbound service near Tamworth. The locomotive has been coupled to a Fowler
'flat sided' 4000 gallon tender which was modelled on the Fowler 3,500 gallon
tender but was able to accommodate more coal and water. Built as LMS No 5613 in
August 1934, No 45613 was renumbered by British railways in August 1948 and
remained in service until September 1964 when it was withdrawn from 12A
Kingmoor shed in Carlisle.
