LMS Route: Birmingham New Street to Harborne

Harborne Station: lnwrh4063

An unidentified ex-LNWR 0-6-2T Coal Tank locomotive is seen at the head of a local passenger service in November 1934

An unidentified ex-LNWR 0-6-2T Coal Tank locomotive is seen at the head of a local passenger service in November 1934, just prior to the cessation of passenger services. The Coal Tank will take forward the service running bunker first, as this was the best configuration when tackling some of the climbs on the short route. The first coach of the train was an ex-LNWR vehicle and no doubt the driver and maybe his fireman also started their railway service with the LNWR before 1923
