Rugby Station - BR Period Locomotives: lnwrrm815
An unidentified ex-LMS 4-6-2 Coronation class locomotive
passes the goods yard with a down express. Frequently described as Duchesses
this class of locomotive is regarded by many as the most powerful steam
locomotive built in the United Kingdom. Barry Freeman writes, 'I would
suggest that 'lnwrrm720', 'lnwrrm721' and 'lnwrrm815'
are three photographs of the same train. The first coach (the brake van) looks
to be the same one in each case. lnwrrm 739 shows a freight train, not an
express. The 8F looks very much like the one just visible in 'lnwrrm
720'.'
