An earlier photo before the gardeners did some pruning.

Covered in rust, bent platework broken pipes and a rusted through smokebox made for a very sad sight in May 2018.

In May 2018 the undergrowth has been cut down revealing the lines of this inside cylinder 4-6-0. To British enthusiasts there is a resemblance to the rebuilt Great Eastern Railway 4-6-0s when rebuilt as class B12. But this is superficial as they have nothing else in common

For climbing plants a dumped locomotive is a handy trellis to scramble across.
