LMS diesel shunter 7058

Diesel and Electric Locomotives

LMS diesel shunter 7058 was a single diesel shunting locomotive of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway. It was based on an earlier Armstrong Whitworth prototype of 1932 that the LMS had tested, and it was first numbered 7408 before being renumbered 7058. Between 1941 and 1943 it was loaned to the War Department for use at the Longmoor Military Railway, although it was never given a War Department number. When the railways were nationalised in January 1948 it passed to British Railways, which allocated it the number 13000, but it was withdrawn in November 1949 and scrapped shortly afterwards, before that number had been applied. The number 13000 was then used instead for the first of the Class 08 shunters.
