British Railways built 2MT 2-6-0 No 46420 enters Platform 4 as it heads a goods train coming off the Leamington branch

British Railways built 2MT 2-6-0 No 46420 enters Platform 4 as it heads a goods train coming off the Leamington branch. The locomotive is passing under the rebuilt Stoney Road bridge which is still being used by trainspotters to 'cop' passing trains. Built at Crewe works in November 1948 to the design of Ivatt, the LMS' last CME, No 46420 remained in service until January 1965 when it was withdrawn from 2B Nuneaton shed to be scrapped by Cashmore's of Great Bridge.
