CREWE WORKS - Much in the way of new technology and experimental work was carried out at Crewe Works and seen here in March 1954 is Stanier LMS Class 5MT 4-6-0 No.44981 fitted with a corridor tender. The corridor passes along the left side if the window is any indication. What effect this had on coal and water capacity I can't imagine. Neither I can I imagine what service a Black 5 might operate that would require such a tender. The loco was withdrawn from 6D Shrewsbury in January 1967 but probably without this tender.
