The fireman on 6012 King Edward VI takes a breather as they come into Banbury and the absence of a shedplate could be due to the fact that the 'King' had been reallocated from Old Oak Common to Wolverhampton Stafford Road just a few weeks before the date of this view.
6012 was one of the fourteen of the class to receive replacement front frames which incorporated a new inside cylinder block, but that didn't prevent it from being withdrawn following a period in store at Stafford Road on 7th September 1962.
