Last round-top Johnson 2F 0-6-0 |
The last Johnson ex-M.R. Class 2F 4' 11' 0-6-0 locomotive to retain a round-top firebox and spring-balance safety valves on the dome, was withdrawn from service also during June, being 58246 of Coalville (15D). This loco. was built at Derby Works under Order No. 663 in 1887, as M.R. 1783. It was renumbered 3175 during 1907, and on passing into the L.M.S.R. at the grouping, retained its number (in common with the majority of ex-M.R. stock), until it became B.R. 58246 in April, 1948. |
