It's 14/12/63 as Coalville's Johnson 1142 Class 0-6-0 58148 wheezes its way past Ratby with a freight on the Leicester West Bridge branch. The loco built in March 1876 was withdrawn from service on 31/12/63 having completed 87 years and 10 months service at the time of withdrawal putting it amongst the top 10 of longest lived operational locos in the UK. ©Neville Simms/Ranwell Collection/Rail Photoprints
