Nameplate STANLEY HALL ex GWR Collett Hall Class 4-6-0 built at Swindon in 1933 as order number 281 and numbered 5938. Allocated to Old Oak Common, Carmarthen and 86A Ebbw Junction from where it was withdrawn in May 1963 and scrapped at Wolverhampton works. In nicely restored condition rear stamped LOT No 281 R 5938 indicating this is the right hand plate. The Hall was near Bridgnorth Shropshire. Note the other plate from this locomotive has had repairs to the bottom of the splasher.



The auction is this upcoming Saturday, 15th July, and absentee bids are accepted....... but shipping would be not easy.......

Getting it to the USA is easy. Have the auctioneer hold it and you bring it on the next crossing of the Queen Mary 2, 4th September, 2023, Southampton to NY.

Sold for £4,000 ($5,230), fairly cheap for any GWR nameplate these days.................
