Ex-LMS 6P Rebuilt Royal Scot Class 4-6-0 No 46128 'Lovatt Scouts' departs platform 3 on an up express in 1957

Ex-LMS 6P Rebuilt Royal Scot Class 4-6-0 No 46128 'Lovatt Scouts' departs platform 3 on an up express in 1957. Built by the North British Locomotive Company in September 1927 as a parallel boilered locomotive, No 46128 was rebuilt when its boiler and cylinders were life-expired and its smokebox becoming difficult to keep airtight. The locomotive remained in service in this new form until May 1965 when it was withdrawn from 8F Springs Branch near Wigan.
