Ex-LMS 4-6-0 No 45595 'Southern Rhodesia', in immaculate condition, stands outside of Aston shed on 29th July 1962. Built by the North British Locomotive Company in January 1935, No 45595 was to remain in service until September 1964 when it was withdrawn from 6G Llandudno Junction shed to be scrapped by J Cashmore of Great Bridge. It was alleged that the locomotive was transferred from Llandudno shed to 5A Crewe North shed but this was a 'Paper Only' transfer.
