LMS Route: Evesham to Birmingham
Redditch Station: mrred1387
Ex-LMS 6P 4-6-0 Royal Scot Class No 46137 'The Prince of Wales's
Volunteers (South Lancashire) stands at Redditch shed. No reason is known for
this express passenger locomotive being sited at the shed. The locomotive is
standing over the disposal pit. The shed on the left was used by the enginemen
during their breaks. The lamppost provided lighting during poor weather and at
night time. To its right the water column is protected by the 'fire devil'
which prevents the column from freezing in very cold weather.
