Quainton_Road_Coventry_No.1. UK heritage steam in the 1960s and 1970s. Built by North British (24564/1939) for Coventry Colliery, 0-6-0T Coventry No.1, worked in the coal industry until it was sold in 1970 to the Quainton Railway Society at what is today called the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre (BRC). Because of its 0-6-0T configuration and blue livery the engine was long a favourite for masquerading as “Thomas The Tank Engine” until the need for extensive repairs took it out of service. It is now a static exhibit at BRC, with the long-term intention of restoring it to working order. roger.griffiths@hotmail.com
