Ex-MR 4-4-0 2P No 40439 is held by Church Road down starting signal from the goods branch on 19th December 1954. When released No 40439 would run forward to the main lines either to continue to Bournville shed or reverse over the crossover and then continue on to New Street station. A member of the MR's 483 class, No 40439 was built by Sharp Stewart in March 1893 and was thought to have been withdrawn during January 1961 from 18A Toton shed.
