The GWR 13xx Class
All six locomotives of the class were constructed in 1934 at
Swindon and employed on shunting duties, or on lines with tight
curves and weight restrictions. No. 1367 was transferred to work
at Weymouth Quay Station and was fitted with a bell to warn
pedestrians. The 13xx Class was turned out in different liveries
including GWR Green and BR Black.

live steam locomotive, including a silver soldered copper boiler
