Obsolescent following the 1873 commissioning of the mastless and more capable HMS Devastation, she was placed in reserve in 1875, and was "paid off" – decommissioned – in 1883.
Warrior conducted a publicity tour of Great Britain in 1863 and spent her active career with the Channel Squadron. Warrior and her sister ship HMS Black Prince were the first armour-plated, iron-hulled warships, and were built in response to France's launching in 1859 of the first ocean-going ironclad warship, the wooden-hulled Gloire. She was the name ship of the Warrior-class ironclads. HMS Warrior is a 40-gun steam-powered armoured frigate built for the Royal Navy in 1859–1861. Later in 1961 it was transferred to Coalville and later Derby from where it was withdrawn in May 1964 and cut in December 1964.Ĭopyright Geoff Dowling & John Whitehouse: All rights reserved
The locomotive spent most of its working life in the Birmingham area, at the time of this picture (1961) it was based at Saltley (21A). The house is still there, and I think lived in, you have to like trains to do that!Ĥ4333 was a Fowler 4F, it was built for the LMS by Kerr Stuart of Stoke-on-Trent in October 1926. The main attraction is the house garden with the gas lamp and two nice railway signs, of course they faced the platform ramp under the footbridge, the intention being to stop people using the barrow crossing as a short cut. The second wagon is lettered al, by this time Bournville depot had closed, perhaps the train was for Longbridge or further west. Notice the fire irons stowed across the tender water tank, the shovel would be in constant use, but these irons were for fire maintenance, shifting clinker from the fire bars etc.

In this digital age it has been possible to remove the smear and all the inbuilt dust spots as well.Ī coal train headed by Fowler 4F 44333 is making progress towards Kings Norton goods yard, the driver wearing his grease top and smoking his pipe is looking out of the cab. It was rejected because it has a nasty smear across the gas lamp and coal truck, a legacy of Peter's home processing. When John and I were assembling pictures for British Railways past & present Birmingham this was a picture we considered.
