LMS Stanier Class 5 4-6-0 5305

Steam and Early Locomotives

London, Midland and Scottish Railway Stanier Class 5 4-6-0 No. 5305, British Railways number 45305, is a preserved British steam locomotive built by Armstrong-Whitworth of Newcastle-on-Tyne in January 1936 as works number 1360. It worked mostly in North West England, survived to the last month of steam on British Railways in 1968 and was withdrawn from Lostock Hall after a collapsed firebox brick arch failed it as a candidate for the Fifteen Guinea Special. It was the last locomotive on the scrap line at Drapers of Hull, saved by owner Albert Draper, and restored in LMS livery by 1976. In preservation it has carried the name Alderman A.E. Draper, and has worked the West Highland Line and the Great Central Railway.
