British Railways 0-6-0 Shunter 12099
Preserved British Railways 0-6-0 'Gronk' Shunter 12099 (British Rail Class 11) tucked up away in a corner at Bridgnorth Yard on the Severn Valley Railway in Shropshire (UK).
12099 was built at Derby Works in 1952 and withdrawn early from service on July 17th 1971.
The 08 (09/10/11) shunter 0-6-0 design was based on the LMS Class D3/7 shunter of 1939 and LMS 12033 shunter series for the war department in early 1945 so it's safe to assume the basic body design you see here dates from the late 1930s.
