Ex-LNER Gresley 'B17/6' class 4-6-0 No. 61665 'Leicester City'. Built by Robert Stephenson & Hawthorn Ltd. in January 1937 as LNER No. 2865 and withdrawn in April 1959.

A superb portrait of 'Leicester City' receiving attention at Liverpool Street Station's servicing point. The 'B17s' were certainly elegant machines when viewed from any angle.
