Ex-MR 0-6-2T 3P 'Flatiron' No 2036 is seen buffered up to the stops at the rear of the shed on Saturday 15th June 1935. Whilst not officially withdrawn until the following year the 19 'Flatirons' in the Birmingham area would only be used as a last resort to cover instances when no other alternative was available. Number 2036 was built at Derby works in September 1907 and was officially withdrawn from Saltley shed in August 1936 to be scrapped soon afterwards.
