1465 1950s Swindon
Peter Kerslake says "1465, a Machynlleth based engine working the Cambrian network is at Swindon Works in the 1950s .
My records tell how the locomotive suffered a collapse of the left hand side trailing wheel when the spokes fractured whilst it was working on the line between Barmouth and Dolgelly in early September of 1964 and I wonder whether this is why it is here at Swindon, the failed wheel would have been on the fireman's side and not visible from this, the driver's side.
