75x2 1930c Devons Road
NLR 2F 0-6-0T No 75x2 on shed at Devons Road in c1930. The third numeral is worn away as the paintwork is poor around the position the NLR number plate was attached. Could be 7512/22/32. But 7512 had LNWR chimney so probably 7522 or 7532 which both had NLR ones in this period.
MR 1Ps 1380 and 1321 are stored 'bagged up' in background as in photo of LMS 7520. Interestingly, the MR tank behind has chalked on 'For Ghandi' which is a fascinating political statement; he was on the 'Dandi Salt March' in the spring of 1930 which might be a clue to the date.
