Working the RCTS (East Midlands Branch) Notts and Derbyshire Railtour on 19 September 1959 is 41320, an Ivatt-designed 2MT tank fitted for push-pull working. Built at Derby and entering service during January of 1952 at 5A, Crewe North shed, this loco had the distinction of being the last of its class in service when it was withdrawn from Bournemouth shed during July 1967 to be broken up in December of that year by Cohens of Morriston. This railtour was using just two coaches for 150 passengers on this push-pull tour, covering over 84 miles and involving 14 reversals.
