Description

BR Standard Class 4 No. 75007 (built 1951) arrives with a three-carriage Down passenger service at Shillingstone; the footplate crew are watching the tablet apparatus. Stanier 5MT Class No. 45102 (built 1935) is waiting at the Up platform.

No date is given for this image, however, the painted-on shed number on 75007 (82G) suggests that the loco has recently arrived for its short allocation to Templecombe – from March/April 1963 until August-October 1964. 45102 is shown as allocated to Derby or further north; withdrawn in 1965.
