Following an appeal in the autumn 2014 edition of the Severn Valley Railway News for verifications of former GWR locomotives destined for Cashmore’s, Great Bridge I would like to thank Les Wheeler for sending me a photograph of Manor Class 4‑6‑0 No. 7818 Granville Manor in the exchange sidings at Wednesbury (Central) on 28th March 1965.
In his own words ‘Whilst it is not conclusive that it ended up at Great Bridge it is certainly a move in the right direction.’
Any information/photographs appertaining to locomotives cut up at Great Bridge will be more than welcome.
