View of ex-LMS 2-8-0 8F No 48723 is seen in tandem with an unidentified member of the same class coming off shed after being coaled. Built for the LNER at Brighton works by the Southern Railway in August 1944 it was returned to the LMS just before nationalisation and remained in service until the final month of steam operations by British Railways - August 1968 - when it was withdrawn from Lostock Hall to be scrapped by TW Ward of Beighton in Sheffield.
