Artist's Description
Hunslet Works No 2857 WD75008 Swiftsure 0-6-0ST
Swiftsure.
This locomotive was built in 1943 by the Hunslet Engine Company for the Ministry of Defence. It then entered service as WD 75008.
See LNER class J94 for details.
The locomotive was delivered to the War Department depot at Burton Dassett in Warwickshire.
The locomotive spent some time working at Cadley Hill Colliery near Swadlingcote in South Derbyshire after being based at Dodworth Colliery in Barnsley. It is believed the locomotive arrived at Cadley Hill in the mid 1970s
Around 1975/76 a number of steam locomotives were moved to Cadley Hill as they were displaced by diesel power at other NCB sites. Steam was phased out at Cadley Hill in the mid 1980s and the pit closed in 1988
Cadley Hill Colliery was one of the last places where steam locomotives were employed. Six locomotives that worked there have been preserved.
