6366 1957c Knowle & Dorridge

‘43xx’ No.6366 is captured by more than one photographer as it runs through Knowle & Dorridge with a southbound express in around 1957. The 2-6-0 was at Oxley until February 1958 when it moved to Swindon. On the right is the original goods yard which was replaced when the line was quadrupled in the 1930s by new facilities at the Birmingham end of the station. The station yard is being used to store redundant GWR ‘Toplight’ coaches built in the first decade of the century.
