LMS Ivatt Class 2: 41312
Number 41241 was built by British Railways at Crewe Works in September 1949. From new it was allocated to Bath Green Park on the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway and saw use on local passenger services over the S&D including the occasional banking job. Alongside spending the first 9 years allocated to the S&D it was reallocated to Bristol Barrow Road in July 1958, this however was not to last for long and it returned to its former home at Bath Green Park in October 1958 (by then under the control of the Western Region of British Railways).
Other shed allocations it was based at included: Wellington, Leamington Spa, Bangor, Croes Newydd, Llandudno Junction and Skipton. Following its allocation to Wellington, it was transferred back to the London Midland Region and was allocated to Leamington from February 1964. The final shed allocation was to Skipton, and it was to remain there for the rest of its working days on BR until 10 December 1966 when it was withdrawn from service.
