Ivatt LMS 2MT 2-6-2T 41313 arrives at Cranmore. This Crewe built locomotive was in service on the Southern Region from May 1952 until October 1965, when it was withdrawn from Eastleigh.

The similar 2-6-0T tender variant, 46447 was new from Crewe in March 1950 and was withdrawn in December 1966 after a career on the London Midland Region.
