LMS Route: Evesham to Birmingham
Wixford Station: mrwix590
Ex-MR 0-6-0 4F No 44013 with a MR Deeley tender is seen heading
for Broom with just a brake van in tow on 11th May 1959 some nine years after
the station closed. The barrow crossing seen in 'mrwix589' has been removed whilst the only platform
structures left is the brick built gentleman's urinal and an unknown structure.
Built at Derby works in 1921 No 44013 remained in service until October 1963
when it was withdrawn from Leicester shed to be scrapped by Derby works the
same month.
