British Railways (Midland Region) 2-6-0 Class 2 No. 46521 at Rothley
This locomotive was originally preserved at the Severn Valley Railway and was the star of BBC TV Drama series 'Oh Doctor Beeching!' when it was named 'Blossom'. She hauled three carmine and cream Mark 1 carriages over Victoria Bridge and into/out of Arley Station, which itself was renamed 'Hatley'.

`In 1866 a board established by the Colonial government
in 1864 to promote Victorian industry, awarded £1500 to
the Victorian Woollen & Cloth Manufacturing Co. to
aid their establishment as the first woollen mill in the
colony. Geelong was well-suited for such an investment
given its proximity both to the raw materials and the
ex-gold seeking labour force from the Ballarat region, the
rail, port and river facilities, and the investor potential of
the grazier class2.
Messrs. W. F. Sayers (secretary pro. tem.), Slater & John
Woods (engineer, manager pro. tem.) advertised for
shareholders, to meet the proposed £25,000 capital, in
1865. Their first mill, measuring 130by 25 fee~and built
in 1866-7 of basalt masonry by Clement Nash , survives
today although not publicly visible. Architect, J Pitman
and the secretary, William Sayers, called tenders for the
first mill in October 186s4 followed by an apparent
redesign by Geelong architect, John Young, and culminating
in a construction decision in September 1866
when Nash won out of 25 tenderers 5.The machinery
arrived from Britain in 1866,its erection to be supervised
by Mr. C. Horsefield of the Lee~ Horse?eld En~eering
Works6• Horsefeild also supervised the installation at the
Albion Mile.
After arrival of more machinery in 1867 and the addition
of another building, in January 1868, the first cloth was
exhibited and in May 1868,some 7000 yards were sold as
their first marketable produce.1 The opening ball had
been February 1st 1867 and the delayed manufacture
(accident) started some U months later with 23 workers
averaging60 hours each per wee~.
Rate descriptions for the mill start in 1867-8 when it was
a 'brick and stone factory'. By 1869-70, it was the same but
with a 25hp steam engine and boiler, 14 rooms, 16 steam
looms, 6 hand looms, 3 lots of scribbling machines and
stables.3 Architects, Davidson & Henderson had called
tenders at the end of 1870 for a new dye house (50 by 30
feet) as part of the improvements described4 Robertson
& Dickwere the contractors5as theywere for the erection
ofa two-storey masonry building (20by 14 feet) at the mill
in 1872-36
•
A fire in August 18737 preceded a '...general overhauling
of the whole establishment...'. (There was also a fire in
1876)8.
'Within the last 12 months they have erected a splendid new engine of about double the power of the original one...Since Christmas (1873) the factory has been extended to the north by the addition of a building of brick and stone, uniform in size and structure with the new room previously erected, and measuring 144 feet each way. The result is that
the factory is now divided into three large compartments, the engine being near the centre'.
The new rooms allowed redeployment of machinery
which had previously been inefficiently arranged in a
'...strange labyrinth of confusion'. The carding, spinning,
scribbling and weaving machines were now separated,
with the new room being devoted to the weavers and their
77 steam looms. Carding and spinning functioned in the
adjoining former 'big room' which had been the principal
room in the complex and was now intended for 'milling
and raising'. Between the first room built (intended to be
a finishing room) and the newest room (near the engine)
a new drying room was being built mid 1874 to replace
what had been the old 'woolley room' prior to the fire
(presumably of timber) and allowed wool drying regardless
of the weather. The new Woolley Room was built on
the east of the main buildings, constructed from brick,
stone and iron and thought near fireproof. Here the dyed wool was cleaned and purified. A third boiler was being
planned to be followed by another 9..
Davidson & Henderson were the architects 10 for the
additions to a complex which now covered two acres.
They called further tenders in 1877 for a fellmongery and
additions to the 'woolley room' also for a boiler house,
fender and chipping rooms in 1878 11.
By then, employees numbered near 250 hands, many of
whom resided too far for home-cooked meals during
working hours (6am to 9p.m.) and hence a dining room
was to be built later in 1874 with a library attached. After
three years of blanket making, some 1500 pairs were
produced in that year while broad cloths were being
supplied to line railway carriages and tweeds for the
industrial schools and volunteer defence uniforms. Blue
twill for the Queensland police was one of the latest
orders 12•In the same period Geelong Town Council Were
planting willows on both sides of the Barwon River, between
the bridge and the mills 13 following the drainage of
low-lying land in the area in previous years.
Tenders were called in 1882 for the company by architects,
Watts & Jackson, for a building plus 840 yards of flood wall,5 feet high to protect the entire complex and prevent what had
been a vexing problem with the flooding of the Barwon
River, particularly in 1880.14 Godfrey Hirst bought out
both this mill and the adjoining Barwon Woollen Mills by
1899-1900 15, after both had experienced difficulties.16In
this period (189Os), a view of the mills shows a 15 bay brick
building with a central ornamental tower on the south (?)
facing the river. The site was fenced (pickets) and the
fenestration of arched ground-level openings with attic type
windows above 17•
Another not unexpected disaster struck after Hirst's acquisition, when the former Barwon Mill (Excelsior Mill
no. 1) on the east side of Factories Road, was burnt out
in 19U. The 2-storey mill was rebuilt (as one storey) and
extended 2 extra bays probably to the design of Laird &
Barlow.18
Laird & Barlow had been already extending the millat its
northern end, spending £1296 on a contract with W Murphy&
Son in 1905. Two years later, builder W Sadler, was
extending the mill to the south and east.19GF Taylor built an engine room in 1910, using up some 70,000 bricks in
the process, with Laird & Buchan again at the helm.1
& Son
At the end of this period (1912), the Geelong sewerage
and water trust produced detailed plans of the Excelsior
Woollen Mill complex. On the Swanston Street elevation,
starting at Barwon Terrace, there was the verandahed
office (now replaced) and the large brick Weaving Room
which was divided externally by pilasters and blind arcading
along its west wall. The same treatment extended
southwards as the Spinning Room until a group of smaller
purpose-built structures broke the rhythm of the facades.
Here was the Boiler Room and impressive two-level Engine
Room, with a coal bunker nearby clad with galvanized
iron sheet and a weighbridge. As in the 1874
description, this marked the demarcation of the new and
old rooms: the Finishing Room extending in brick to the
south and the first bluestone section laying to the east. A
small Weaving Room occupied the south-west corner of
the site .The Factories Road elevation was far less impressive,
consisting of iron- clad sheds used as drying rooms2
Only the 1874 'Woolley Room' was evident as masonry on
the plans, being separated from the old room by a tramline
which ran from drying rooms to the south and then
east of the site along the Barwon River.'
46443 was built at BR’s Crewe works in April 1950 and was based at Derby for 11 years. In 1961, 46443 moved to Saltley, where duties were limited to infrequent rush hour journeys. A final move to Newton Heath (near Manchester) in 1966 was followed by withdrawal in March 1967.
It was then preserved and is resident on the Severn Valley Railway. It is now on display in The Engine House awaiting its next overhaul, following withdrawal from service, whilst in preservation, in October 2011.
In July 1987, 46443 was asked to replace Class 4MT 75069 on the BR Cardigan Bay Express service in North Wales and despite initial misgivings it performed well in that role. This picture records that time.
Another one from the archives.
The LMS designed, BR built, Ivatt Class 2 2-6-0 46521 in BR lined green seen at Hampton Loade on the Severn Valley Railway.
This was one of the last batch of 25 built at Swindon in 1953 and all allocated to the Western Region.
The first appeared in 1946, with 7 remaining from the total of 128 built.
It's a scary thought that this pic was taken nearly 40 years ago ! The loco has lasted three times as long in preservation as for her original owner.
Now on the GCR at Loughborough, where she was returned to traffic following a major overhaul in January 2012
