Locomotive History
5764 was built in 1929 at Swindon works and owes its survival into preservation on being sold by British Railways on withdrawal in May 1960 to London Transport. It became L94 in the London Transport fleet and survived another eleven years until withdrawn in 1971. 5764 is a member of the 863 strong 57xx 0-6-0PT class, making them the second most produced British class of steam locomotive. The Great Western Railway had favoured Pannier Tank locomotives since 1911 when they had started rebuilding locomotives built between 1870 and 1905 into this style. By 1929 these older locomotives were in need of replacement. 5764 is one of the earlier engines of the class fitted with the original cab design and as far as I can tell, spent all its working life before preservation in London either allocated to Old Oak Common or Neasden when a London Transport engine.
