E&WJR 0-6-0 No 14 stands 'wrong road' on the up platform
carrying Class 6 headlamps in 1922. The engines delivered were an updated
version of those which went before, but with Belpaire fireboxes, straight
footplates and 4foot 9 inch wheels. Following on from No 13, these were also
delivered in blue. Cylinders and motion were the same as for the 2-4-0, as was
for the most part the boiler and firebox. These locos were not fitted with air
brakes, being vacuum only, and allowed the displacement of the DX goods on
through goods trains: at least on paper. Built by Beyer Peacock for the
E&WJR in 1903 it was classified by the LMS with a '2F' power rating and
given the running number 2007 which it retained until withdrawn in 1926.
