Ex-MR 2F 0-6-0 No 58143 is seen at the head of a Permanent
Way working on Sunday 8th August 1954. The down goods line has been lifted and
it appears the sleepers have been loaded into the trucks. The up goods line has
already been replaced as can be seen by the new ballast. Number 58143 was a
member of the Midland's 1142 class and was built by Dubbs & Co. 830 circa
1875. It bore the LMS running number 22955 prior to have be taken into BR
ownership and was withdrawn from Coalville shed in November 1963 to be scrapped
shortly afterwards.
