73050 1950s Bristol Temple Meads

73050 1950s Bristol Temple Meads

Standard class Five 73050 is seen here at Brstol Temple Meads and at the northern end of the station in a view from the 1950 's . Newly built at Derby , 73050 was an exhibit in May of 1954 at the International Railway Congress Exhibition held at Willesden that same month and its planned allocation to Bath Motive Power Depot on the Somerset and Dorset was accordingly delayed for a month , the locomotive joining her sister engines 73051 and 73052 at Bath in June 1954 . The working shown here could well , therefore , be a Somerset and Dorset duty , heading to Bath and either northwards to the Midlands or southwards down to Bournemouth .
