During 1957/58 no 40186 spent around 9 months at St Margarets on what appears to have been an extended loan from Dawsholm shed. The ex-LMS 2-6-2T is seen here approaching Joppa station on 23 August 1957 heading west, with our local commuter still observing events from behind the fence see image 37154. I wonder if he ever made it to work on that particular Friday....
