5027 1962-07-13 Neath

5027 " Farleigh Castle " is seen here in her final months of service complete with double chinmey fitted in March the previous year and mechanical lubricator , two of the refinements which enhanced many of the " Castles " in their final years , although she is certainly not looking her best here at Neath , rostered on an express parcels working .Previous years had seen 5027 shedded at Wolverhampton , Bristol , Old Oak Common and Carmarthen before yet another move to Llanelly during the month of this view in July of 1962 , from where she was withdrawn in November of that year .Note the correctly positioned lamps for such a working , one in the centre and one on the right of the buffer beam
