Built in Darlington Works during 1953.
British Railways-built Ivatt Class 2 No. 46447 heads a demonstration freight on the East Somerset Railway near Mendip Vale during a Martin Creese photographic charter on 1st March 2015. The locomotive was built at Crewe in 1950 and had an operating life of 17 years, being withdrawn in December 1966, and sold to Woodhams at Barry. Although regarded as in generally a poor state of repair it was acquired by the Ivatt Locomotive Trust in 1972 and moved to the Buckingham Railway Museum at Quainton Road. A further move to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway took place in 2008, when the trust consolidated it's fleet on the island. Crucially, in 2012 a deal was struck with the East Somerset Railway (ESR) to transfer No. 46447 to Cranmore in exchange for Southern Railway Class E1 0-6-0T No. 110. The arrangement was the ESR to restore the Ivatt, which was completed in two years and on 26th October 2014 No. 46447 hauled a train for the first time in 48 years. It is understood that the arrangement is that the Ivatt Class 2 will remain on the ESR for 10 years. Copyright John Whitehouse - all rights reserved

Packs of girls -- usually 4 or 5 in number and often with one of them the obvious leader -- patrolled the track around the football field. Many were constantly on their cell phones and seemed more made up for a party -- eye liner, eye shadow, etc. -- than a Thanksgiving Day, 10-o'clock-in-the-morning football game.
Melrose (in red) hosted Wakefield (in grey) and won, 15-14, beating Wakefield for the first time in 15 years. The win also gives Melrose the Middlesex League championship and a berth in the Eastern Massachusetts Class 2 playoffs.

Ex-LMS Ivatt Class 2 2-6-2T No.41241 once again shows off its unique Keighley and Worth Valley red livery at Sheringham station on the late afternoon of 2nd April 2022. This was the condition in which the Ivatt double-headed the KWVR's Reopening Special with USA 0-6-0T No.30072 on 29th June 1968, and reapplied for the 50th anniversary re-enactment in 2018.

The stone offers a large Christian Cross next to the roadside. Possibly once ornate coloured this elaborately carved stone has been a great decoration along this route for around one thousand years. On the side of the stone facing away from the road there is superb hunting scene. The carvings overall are assigned to a Pictish style and the stone is thought by many to be carved at the time of the Picts taking on Christianity as their religion. The move from Pagan to Christian iconography is easily seen in the Cross decoration. The working of the Cross and the style of the figures on the reverse indicates this was the Picts carving the stone. The stone may have once held Pictish Symbols on both sides and the Cross may have been used to cover one face and to purify the other. Easter Ross in northern Scotland, notable
The Hilton of Cadboll stone from Easter Ross in northern Scotland has a closely similar hunting scene to Aberlemno 3 it is now in the Museum of Scotland.

Aberlemno 3 like all of the stones at Aberlemno is the an amazing stone monument. The stone beautifully embraces the symbols inscribed by the Picts. The stone as seen from the roadside is a superb emblematic enigma. The symbols have historians, archaeologist and many interested parties proposing possible interpretations of the many Pictish Stones that have been found in Scotland. The Picts left no written accounts and the symbols need to be seen with a Pictish mind-scape, a glimpse into what the symbols meant for them. Whilst the debate continues the stones still attract much attention, they a beautiful and there human artistic sculpting definitely talks to the human consciousness. The contemporary voice from and with the stones gives ideas of raising a commemorative monument for a grave, boundary or ritual marker.

Aberlemno 3 is classified under the J Romilly Allen and Joseph Anderson's survey as a Class II stone.
Pictish stone - Classification
Class I — unworked stones with symbols only incised. There is no cross on either side. Class I stones date back to the 6th, 7th and 8th century.
Class II — stones of more or less rectangular shape with a large cross and symbol(s) on one or both sides. The symbols, as well as Christian motifs, are carved in relief and the cross with its surroundings is filled with designs. Class II stones date from the 8th and 9th century.
Class III — these stones feature no idiomatic Pictish symbols. The stones can be cross-slabs, recumbent gravemarkers, free-standing crosses, and composite stone shrines. They originate in the 8th or 9th century. Historic Scotland describes this class as "too simplistic" and says "Nowadays this is not considered a useful category. A surviving fragment may belong to a monument that did include Christian imagery".

On New Years Day 2021, a sad, dilapidated Balhannah station sits quietly awaiting its fate. Will no doubt be another classic example of demolition by neglect.
Ex British Railways standard class 2 designed by RA Riddles for British Railways and built at Darlington in 1954 , passes Kinchley Lane with a Loughborough to Leicester North service.
Loughborough Standard Locomotive Group are currently in the final stages of the renovation of Ivatt 2 2-6-0 46521 in Loughborough shed. Last week the boiler was lifted into the frames and the engine is looking complete once again. The LMS Ivatt 2 was the basis for the later British Railways Standard 2 78xxx Class. 78019 is also cared for by the LSLG.
Seen behind the Ivatt, Standard 5 4-6-0 73156 is another loco in their care. It is also moving nicely along the restoration process.
