View of LNWR 2-4-2T '4ft 6in' tank engine No 769 blowing off steam as it stands light engine on the up middle road at New Street station circa 1906. Short coal rails have been fitted which are fitted behind the tool boxes. The locomotive is carrying three head code lamps on the smokebox which indicates that its last or next trip was on an empty passenger service. There were two tool boxes fitted on either side of the bunker immediately behind the cab which were accessed via doors in the rear of the cab. See image 'lnwrbns_pg449' for a view of the otherside of the bunker and the other tool box.
