A (GWR) cabside numberplate, 7820, from a 7800 Manor Class 4-6-0 built at Swindon in November 1950 and named DINMORE MANOR after an historic manor house near Leominster in Herefordshire. Allocated new to Oswestry on 20 November 1950, its later sheds included Machynlleth, Chester, Laira, Cardiff Canton, Oxley and Shrewsbury from where it was withdrawn in the week ending 6 November 1965, having worked the last steam hauled Cambrian Coast Express. Sold for scrap to Woodham Bros at Barry, then rescued for preservation and subsequently restored, it is currently at the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Steam Railway. The front repainted.
