Ex-LNWR 0-6-0 Cauliflower No 8519 and No 8430 having just left Kenilworth Station with a Coventry bound local train. Note from this view looking towards Leamington with Kenilworth Station in the distance, the two tracks on the right acted as the head shunt for the goods yard as well as the refuge loop line for East/North bound traffic. C1938

Number 8519 was built at Crewe in February 1900 with an unknown date of withdrawal. Number 8430 was built at Crewe in May 1902 lasting just over 50 years in service being withdrawn in February 1953 from Crewe South shed (where it was probably dumped rather than being in service prior to official withdrawal) and scrapped at Crewe shortly afterwards.
