Ex-E&WJR 2-4-0 No 13, seen in its SMJ livery, poses for
a 'Frank Moore' postcard photograph, which is believed to have been taken by
the LMS at Saltney, possibly prior to scrapping. Although allocated LMS No 290,
No 13 was withdrawn due to boiler condition in 1924 without being renumbered:
the valve gear and cylinders were suitable as spares for 14-16. The
photographer has removed the background by touching up the negative.
