Water Capacity 4250 Gallons

This is the plate which states the water capacity to the tender of British Railways Standard Class 7MT 4-6-2 Pacific steam locomotive 70013 'Oliver Cromwell'. Despite the enormous capacity of the tender, Ollie requires a full refill after barely 100 miles or so at mainline speeds.

 

This photograph was taken at Sheringham on the North Norfolk Railway.
