The grouping in 1923, allowed locomotives designed and intended for one particular area to find more suitable work elsewhere in Britain. Thus the LMS determined that some of these ex-North London Railway '2F' 0-6-0 Tanks should find new homes in deepest Derbyshire! 58850 was at Cromford Bottom Yard on Saturday 25th April 1953 at the Cromford & High Peak Railway. The Cromford canal is behind the engine and the ex-MR main line is behind the wall.

Nice detail for the modeller, including the tank top pipework too!
