LNER B1 4-6-0 No 61085 approaches Ruddington with a Leicester Central to Nottingham Victoria slow estimated as in 1958. It appears to have a 35E New England shed plate, which it left in 1955 yet has a late crest under the dirt, so we can assume its new owners of Lincoln and Leicester GC never bothered to change it!
