Ex-LMS 5MT 4-6-0 Black 5 No 44942 runs forward to be turned
on Rugby's turntable after being coaled and watered. Its excellent condition
indicates that it must have only just left the works after being overhauled.
Number 4942 was built at Horwich works in December 1946 and lasted until the
final months of steam operations on British Railways when it was withdrawn in
June 1968 from Lostock Hall shed to be scrapped by Drapers Ltd of Hull in
January 1969.
