KWVR Keighley West Yorkshire 26th September 1976

            Ex-Midland Fowler 4F 0-6-0 43924 is the only survivor of this large that was built prior to the 1923 Grouping. It was also the fist steam loco to be saved for preservation from Woodham's Barry scrapyard in 1968.

The 4F has just arrived at Keighley station tender-first from Oxenhope and the driver is enjoying a puff on his pipe on the footplate. I like the firing shovel stowed on the tender side but assume it's a spare - it would be a tricky place for the fireman to keep retrieving it from. In any case it is on the driver's side - the engine is right-hand drive.
