Stanier Class no. 45231 Sherwood Forester was built in 1936 for the London, Midland & Scottish Railway.
Since then it has worked all over the country, from routes in Wales and Northern England in its working life, to heritage railways in Southern England to the beautiful Mallaig line in Scotland, where Harry Potter was filmed.
