LOCATION: Hasland,nr. ChesterfieldDATE:Undated – likely 1959-61SUBJECT: Workingsouth of Chesterfield and passing a once very recognisable spot is ex-WDAusterity WD/8 Class 2-8-0 BR No. 90135 seen here running south with atrain of empties on the Hasland Goods Line. Built by the NorthBritish Locomotive Co. in 1901, she entered service during the dark days of1943 for the War Department as No. 7040; later being renumbered as WD No. 77040at the start of 1945. She only assumed her post Nationalisation BR runningnumber of 90135 as late as June 1952 when allocated to Goole (25C) shed. Though her home shed plateis not discernible in this photograph, I think it highly likely that she wouldhave been a Mirfield (56D) locomotive at the date this photograph was taken.She was withdrawn off Sunderland (52G) shed during September 1967 and almost immediatelyscrapped at Hughes Bolckows (North Blyth).Note: The line of cottages visible in the background were built for employees of nearby Hasland engine shed (which this train is about to pass by) but have all have long since been demolished along with the shed. PHOTOGRAPHER:Unknown.CONDITION:Very good clean and unmarked save for identification details hand written toreverse (see scan). Always kept in an album and with some slight corner wear asa consequence. TYPE:Unbordered approx. (6.0 x 4.0)” b & w gloss finish enprint photographon Kodak paper.
