Ruston 48DS No.1
This Ruston & Hornsby 48DS was supplied new to the Midland Widget Works, in 1949. The works closed in 1973 and the contract to demolish and dispose of all scrap metal on site went to Charlie Strong. The loco was found to be in excellent mechanical condition and was taken to Garrison Lane to join No.2 in shunting the yard.
It was last recorded by the IRS as being seen in 1984. Presumed scrapped or sold thereafter.
