LNER London & North Eastern Railway Steam Locomotive Class C7 2204 at York in 1935c
A pair of ex-NER Z Class Atlantics were photographed at York circa 1935. Designated Class C7 by LNER, by the mid 1930s, they had been relegated to secondary passenger duties, express freight and parcels traffic but were still being used intensively. No 2204, released to traffic in June 1915 was withdrawn by BR in August 1948. Seen behind, is No 2169, built in June 1914 and scrapped at Darlington in July 1948. Both were renumbered in 1946 but neither of them received a BR number.
