GWR Route: Banbury to Wolverhampton
Leamington Spa - BR Locomotives: gwrls933
Gerry Batchelor writes "A dub dee, never my favourite engine
at that time (no brass and copper) No 90516 makes its usual clanky way forward
on the down through road at Leamington with a freight for Birmingham 28
September 1963". Built as WD No 79253 by the Vulcan Foundry circa 1945 it
remained in service until withdrawn in November 1965 from Doncaster shed and
was finally scrapped in June 1966 by Garnham Harris & Elton of
Chesterfield.
