British Railways built 2MT No 46519 runs into platform 2 on 23rd April 1966 to pick up passengers for the RCTS 'St George Railtour'. The time is just before 10:00am and this was to be the very last time that Nuneaton shed would turn out a steam locomotive for a passenger working. The special was to run to Water Orton and continue to Walsall. Built by Swindon works in February 1953 No 46519 remained in service until October 1966 when it was withdrawn from 5D Stoke-on-Trent shed, Nuneaton being its penultimate shed..
