47534 1960s Westhouses

Built in March 1928 by W.Beardmore Ltd as LMS No.16617 and renumbered as No.7534 in January 1938, this Jinty had been at Leicester since 1939 but was transferred to Derby in October 1960 and finally in June 1965 to Westhouses, from where it was withdrawn in March 1967. Unfortunately, like many of the Beardmore-built engines it has lost its 'Pearly Gates' worksplates which were originally fitted on the bunker sides but were prone to damage.
