One of the favourite locomotives on this site and well represented with photographs is this one of Worcester shed's 4-6-0 'Castle' class express passengers locomotive No.7005 'Sir Edward Elgar' on a 'down' London service. The photograph was taken from Pinvin bridge looking down into Pershore Station and as No.7005 was only ever allocated to Worcester there are no clues as to the date.
This is 6100 class 2-6-2T No.6155 standing in one of the centre roads at Shrub Hill Station. The locomotive is n excellent condition and judging by the leading carriage it is at the head of afternoon 'School train' from Worcester Foregate Street to Ledbury. One of the really annoying things about the 'School train' was that it stood in Shrub Hill Station for a long time prior to departing empty stock for Worcester but as it did not stand at a platform road nobody could get on it. Although the date is unknown it is likely to be 1963 or 1964.
'Grange' class 4-6-0 No.6877 'Llanfair Grange' is another engine that spent all its working life at Worcester being seen here near Abbotswood Junction and light down to Worcester (date unknown).
