Austerity 0-6-0 saddle tank 'No.44' built by Robert Stephenson and Hawthorns (works No.7104 of 1943) propelling a raft of internal hopper wagons towards Whittle Colliery, Newton-on-the -Moor on 1st September 1971. Delivered new in September 1943 to Bicester as War Department No.75068, it was sold to the Port of London Authority in 1946 and was numbered 'No.83' in their fleet based at Custom House shed. It was subsequently sold to the NCB in October 1960 and was soon fitted with a Giesl ejector. It worked for the rest of its career at Whittle Colliery, where it was scrapped in August 1972.
