Fenny Compton Station: smjfc172
Ex-LMS 8F 2-8-0 No 48392 gets the right away from Kineton to
Fenny Compton on 10th January 1964. Besides the semaphore signal is a notice to
drivers advising them that the 'Catch Points' are 414 yards ahead. This marked
the point where the two passing loops came together to continue onwards to
Fenny Compton as a single line route. Built as LMS No 8392 at Horwich works in
April 1945, it was renumbered by British Railways in June 1948 which it
retained until June 1968 when it was withdrawn from 9K Bolton shed to be
scrapped.
