GNR class C2 4-4-2T no.1515 - LNER class C12
This photograph comes from a collection of postcard-style prints, collected by W.Beckerlegge and acquired by my father. There are two main sources of these commercial photos, produced around the 1923 grouping, W.H.Whitworth (WHW) and the Locomotive Publishing Company (LPC). The photographers have not been credited on the prints, so cannot be recorded here.

Tractacus, Peter Castell, SV1XV have particularly liked this photo

I think those really old photos are terrific. The staff appear proud of their locos. We have our own version - of the first day of service at our station. seafordmuseum.co.uk/history/history-of-seaford/the-railway
The loco was even named after our town. Now we are reduced to 3-car 313 class multiple units.
