Summary

Description
English: B17/5 No. 2870 entering Stowmarket, 1940 - Wartime.
View southwards, towards Ipswich and London, of the 15.40 Liverpool Street - Norwich, headed by No. 2870 'City of London', one of just two Gresley 'Sandringham' 4-6-0s ('Footballer' series) which he selected in September 1937 for streamlining like his A4 Pacific's. The two B17s were No. 2859 'Norwich City' (built 6/36) and became 'East Anglian' and No. 2870 'Manchester City' (built 5/37) became 'City of London' as B17/5s, in 1946 Nos. 1659 and 1670, then BR 61659 and 61670. Their streamlining was removed in 4/51 and they were converted to B17/6 in 7/49 and 4/51 respectively, being withdrawn 2/59 and 4/60. The photograph was taken in May 1940 by my late cousin Walter Dendy, braving the strict forbiddance of railway photography in wartime.
