A working steam loco at the Courtauld's works, glimpsed from a boat on the Coventry canal. I am grateful to Alan Murray-Rust who has subsequently identified this as a Peckett 0-4-0ST loco built in 1948, w/n 2085. (Scan of 35mm colour slide - quality not good due to slide having suffered poor storage.)
