With front numberplate removed for a smokebox spruce-up, LMS Stanier Class 8F 2-8-0 No. 48687 is stabled at Newton Heath MPD on 15th June 1968. Was the numberplate ever re-fitted, as the loco was condemned during that month? It was new from Brighton Works in February 1944 and first allocated to Saltley (21A). The loco was withdrawn from Newton Heath but it's disposal details are not known.
