GWR 2-6-2T No 4539, a 45xx class 'Small Prairie' locomotive, is seen buffered up to another larger prairie on the coaling stage road circa 1939. Built at Swindon works in May 1913, No 4539 remained in service until October 1955 when it was thought to have been withdrawn from 81D Reading shed to be scrapped.
