RH 284844 1960s WMGB No5 Foleshill

Ruston and Hornsby supplied 0-4-0 diesel, works No. 284844, in 1950 and it became WMGB No.5 at Foleshill. It is seen here in fully lined livery with a feint number 5. When rail traffic at the site ceased in March 1969 it went to Birds at Long Marston in 1972 but was lucky because it was not scrapped, instead being exported to Belgium the following year.
