2192 1951-04-15 Severn Tunnel Junction
An unusual engine at Severn Tunnel Junction Locomotive Depot.
Ex-Burry Port & Gwendraeth Valley 0-6-0 Saddle Tank No. 2192 'Ashburnham' is in the yard east of the Depot, probably on its way to Swindon for repair which proved to be un-economic and it was withdrawn on 30th April 1951. This was one of 15 engines absorbed by the GWR from the BP&GVR in 1922, all but one of which survived into Nationalisation, this one (built in 1900) until 3/55.
