GWR loco No. 7917 'North Aston Hall' @ Old Oak Common shed - Apr 1959

            An old photograph of Great Western Railway (GWR) steam locomotive No. 7917 'North Aston Hall' at Old Oak Common shed/MPD, taken by H. Fisher in Apr 1959.

This is in a transport enthusiast (H. Fisher) old photo album, next to the photo is written "A 'Modified Hall' No 7917 North Aston Hall, at Old Oak Common Shed. 26/4/59".

No. 7917 was a F. Hawksworth designed 'Modified Hall class' 4-6-0 engine, built at the Swindon Works and new to GWR in Apr 1950. The locomotive was withdrawn from service in Aug 1965 then scrapped in the October at Bird (Llanelli).

If there are any errors in the above description please let me know. Thanks.
