Ex-North London 2F 0-6-0T No. 27522 (still in LMS livery) rests between other engines on a Sunday in 1948. A large number of engines were required for shunting in the many Yards around the Birkenhead Docks. This engine looks its age of nearly 70 years but later went back to London and lasted another nine years.
