I know Class B4 locomotives belonged to the London & South Western Railway, but they fit in nicely with my Leeds Scarcroft & Wetherby Railway.

It is 1914 and this little 0.4.0 locomotive was sold to James Austin’s Ltd of Ravensthorpe, Dewsbury, U.K.. Before it could be delivered it was requisitioned by the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway.

It has been a busy couple of weeks or so. Having alterations etc. done to the house to aid my wife who is disabled.
Just the odd train has been run on tests. One such locomotive is a 0.4.4 in LSWR livery. It will join its sisters on the Leeds Scarcroft & Wetherby Railway services.

Thank you, gentlemen. The 0.4.4 runs really well (in both directions lol).

The alterations were not too big, but had to be done. I know it is all for my wife's benefit, but some days the aids are a 'boon' to me. We are not getting younger. :lol: :lol: :lol:
