An Exhibition of locomotives and rolling stock was held to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Institute of Locomotive Engineers, on 11 - 14 May 1961. This is a general scene, featuring the ex-Midland 7'0" 3-cylinder Compound 4P 4-4-0 No. 1000, with the Gresley Pacific 60022 'Mallard' behind it. Other exhibits were modern steam and new main-line Diesels etc. No. 1000 was a Johnson locomotive of 1902, modified by Deeley in 1914. It was withdrawn in 10/51, but preserved and in 6/59 restored close to its 1914 condition with maroon livery. (See also Image]).
