Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway 7F 2-8-0 Art Print by Stuart Booth

 

Designed by Henry Fowler of the Midland Railway, the 7F 2-8-0 became the most recognisable  locomotives on the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway. The first engines were delivered in 1914 and a second batch were delivered in 1925 by which time the line was under the auspices of the LMS. 

 

They were to give excellent service until withdrawal between 1959 and 1964.
