LNWR 4-4-0 George Fifth Class No 1472 'Moorhen' waits in line with other locomotives to exit the shed tender first. The locomotive has been fitted with a Weir Boiler Feedwater Pump on the side of the smokebox and has been coupled to a Whale tender fitted with coal rails. Built at Crewe works in September 1911, No 1472 was renumbered in July 1927 as LMS No 5371 and again in August 1936 as No 25371 which it carried until it was withdrawn from service in September 1939.
