A short video of BR 2-6-0 Class 5MT number 42968 working a short freight on a photo charter at the Llangollen Railway in 2008. Some of the video footage was taken in the cab.
The locomotive, normally based at the Severn Valley Railway, was built in 1934 for the London, Midland & Scottish Rly (LMS) and withdrawn from service by British Railways in 1966.
Many thanks to Richard Newton of the 3P20 Parcels Group and the railway staff for organising this charter.
