Description

The “Precedent” class of the London and North Western Railway (LNWR) were nicknamed “Jumbo” – strange for such small locomotives. Amongst other things, they were known for their free-running capabilities. Here we see No.5036 in the red livery of the London Midland and Scottish Railway (which absorbed the LNWR in 1923) doing what came naturally to her!
