BR Period Locomotives: lnwrbns_br1968
British Railways Standard Class 4 4-6-0 No 76087 is seen
standing at the East end of Platform 8 at the head of a local service to
Worcester. Whilst it may appear to be a mistake in the records of the
photographer a number of services were routed via the Gloucester Junction and
Camp Hill and then on to Kings Norton. Built at Horwich works in May 1957 No
76087 was to remain in service until January 1967 when it was withdrawn from
Oxley shed in Wolverhampton to be scrapped in September 1967 by J Cashmore of
Newport.
