West Country 4-6-2 34102 'Lapford' (but now devoid of nameplates) appears to be receiving some attention in the depot's lifting shop. 34102 was built March 1950 and lasted until the end of Southern Region steam traction in July 1967; it was notable because it was the last unrebuilt West Country to be withdrawn.
