A WORKSPLATE “Hudswell Clarke & Co. Ltd No. 862 Railway Foundry Leeds 1912”. 862 was an 0-4-0ST with outside cylinders that emerged from Works on 21st September 1909 to go to Dinnington Main Colliery Company Limited Dinnington Colliery Rotherham, as “DINNINGTON No.2”. The original works number on this plate has been ground off and “862” reapplied. Also at Dinnington Colliery at the same time was HC 989/1912 (ex Maltby Colliery) named “ROSSINGTON No.1”. “DINNINGTON No.2” became NCB property on 1st January 1947, moving to Steetley Colliery in late 1965 where it carried HC 989/1912 plates. It was scrapped by April 1968. Oval engraved brass, 13”x8”, in ex-loco condition. The ‘mix-up’ of the works numbers remains an intriguing mystery.
