Ex-LMS 0-6-0T 3F No 47598 is seen during shunting duties with parcels stock in Coventry station's new parcels depot. Note the chalked surround over the access hole to the sandbox giving either the impression of a clockwork keyhole or dummy splasher. Built as LMS No 7598 by WG Bagnall in November 1928 it remained in service until July 1966 when it was withdrawn from Chester's Midlands shed in May 1967 to be cut up by Bird's of Long Marston near Stratford upon Avon.
