R30475SSBR (Late) - Stanier 5MT - 'Black 5' - 45473 (With Steam Generator)
The Wiiliam Stanier-designed Class 5 was introduced in 1934 onto the LMS and by the time the last was built in 1951, the class was 842-strong. No. 45473 was completed at Derby in May 1943, entering service as 5473 and spending much of its working life in Scotland, being part of Perth’s allocation at the time of Nationalisation in 1948 and finishing its career at Dundee Tay Bridge. From there, it was withdrawn in November 1966 and subsequently scrapped at W.H. Arnott, Young at Co. Ltd, Carmyle, Glasgow the following February.
R30484BR - Stanier 5MT - 'Black 5' - 45055
Completed in November 1935, this ‘Black Five’ was built at Vulcan Foundry, near Newton-le-Willows in Lancashire.
It spent most of its working career in north-west England and North Wales, though in 1966 it had brief allocations at West Hartlepool and York, before moving back to the Liverpool area and serving at Bank Hall and then Aintree. It almost lasted to the end of steam, withdrawal coming a month shy on 6th July 1968 from Lostock Hall, Preston, with scrapping the following February.
974001MR 483 No.502 Midland Railway Royal Train
The Midland Railway 483 Class 4-4-0 was a class of steam-driven locomotive designed by Henry Fowler for passenger work on the Midland Railway. The class were nominally "rebuilds" of various earlier classes designed by Samuel W. Johnson. This design formed the basis for the later LMS Class 2P 4-4-0.
Construction of the first batch was authorised by Midland Railway Order O/3942 dated 21 June 1911: Four more batches were authorised; in 1912, 1913, 1914 and 1922. The London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) inherited these locomotives at the Grouping of the railways in 1923, completing the last of these rebuilds in 1924. Some of them entered British Railways (BR) ownership in 1948 but all were scrapped from 1950 to 1959.
