52-80

Most of these were taken around 1926-7  in Redbridge Cutting, bar a few at Southampton West station. Information given here is what is written on the back of each print. I have posted King Arthurs previously, so this selection are the 'other ranks'. I have included some as a record of the time which are slightly out of focus when enlarged, but offer a reasonable thumbnail picture. The # numbers are their entry number in my album.

52. 582 I. Class X2 (Adams). 4-4-0, built around 1890. 7 foot 1 inch driving wheels Up 1.30. 16/4/1927. Card index 1.  The class is similar to the T6 and most engines lasted well into the 1930s up to 1945. This engine withdrawn 1931. Locomotives Illustrated 124 on Adams is useful.
