A WORKSPLATE “LMS Built Derby”. This worksplate was carried by the LMS Class 3P (later Class 3) 2-6-2T, LMS 15518, built at Derby in December 1930 under Lot 55. A Fowler design, these useful tank engines were used mainly on freight and local passenger trains. 15518 became LMS 19 from 1934, then BR 40019. Latterly a Willesden engine, it was withdrawn from Kentish Town in December 1959 and cut up at Stratford in May 1960. Oval cast brass, 10½”x6”, face-polished and repainted only. A postcard size photograph of the locomotive accompanies the plate.
