No.3524 ‘Dock Tank’ 0-4-2

No.3524 is a Dock or ‘Bissell Tank’ , so called after the design of rear truck  carrying the trailing wheels. The square saddle-tank  is almost a ‘pannier tank’ but the LNW never deigned to use that designation. The crew of the ‘Special tank’ based saddle tank behind look on curiously at the photographer, probably amazed at anyone bothering to waste a photograph on a dirty, lowly shunting tank, for beauty was never the Bissell Tank’s strong point.
