LMS 4-6-0 Stanier Black 5 No 4813 is coming off shed having been watered and coaled

LMS 4-6-0 Stanier Black 5 No 4813 is coming off shed having been watered and coaled. Number 4813 was numbered in the 4800 series because the LMS had underestimated the number of Black 5s they would require, the 5000 to 5499 series not being sufficient. Built at Derby works in October 1944 it remained in service until withdrawn from Stoke-on-Trent shed in September 1966 to be scrapped by J Cashmore of Great Bridge in December of the same year.
