History

The Wiiliam Stanier-designed Class 5 was introduced in 1934 onto the LMS and by the time the last was built in 1951, the class was 842-strong. No. 45473 was completed at Derby in May 1943, entering service as 5473 and spending much of its working life in Scotland, being part of Perth’s allocation at the time of Nationalisation in 1948 and finishing its career at Dundee Tay Bridge. From there, it was withdrawn in November 1966 and subsequently scrapped at W.H. Arnott, Young at Co. Ltd, Carmyle, Glasgow the following February.
