A class WT 2.6.4T steam locomotive sits out of use at York Road depot, Belfast. Built at the LMS works in Derby for the LMS (NCC) and the UTA, these locomotives were in use from 1947 until mid-1970. York Road depot, including the coaling tower seen in the background, was demolished in the early 1970s to make way for the M2/M5 motorway. Only one WT survives in preservation.
