Worksplate LMS BUILT 1914 HORWICH. Locos built by the LYR at Horwich in 1914 were Hughes 1546 class 3 0-8-0 tender locos, with LYR numbers 1583, 1584, 1585 & 6, 7, 134, 141,142, 150, 229, 259, 281, 460 becoming LMS 12877-12889, only one of this lot carried a BR number that being 229 later 12886 finally BR 52886 until withdrawn in 1949. So it could possibly be off this locomotive as it was the only one that made it into BR service. LYR 1583 LMS 12887 was allocated a BR number but never carried it as withdrawn in 1948. Oval Cast brass in cleaned condition, measures 10.5in x 6in. A rare plate.
