SR/BR brass LOCOMOTIVE NAMEPLATE “LYNMOUTH” from a “West Country” class 4-6-2 Pacific “34099” which was built at Eastleigh in 1949. It entered service in December of that year at Ramsgate, but was soon moved on to Bournemouth and later was based at Brighton, Salisbury and Eastleigh. The loco was not chosen for rebuilding and stayed in its original “Spam Can” form until it was withdrawn in November 1964. After a short period of storage it was cut up at Bird’s Morriston, Swansea in March 1965. The plate comes with its “WEST COUNTRY CLASS” scroll both of which have been attractively face restored, with the backs untouched, and they are presented on a hardwood backing board for display. (This was one of the West Country locos that was not allocated a badge). BTC
