Asset Overview

Located outside Stratford Station, London. From the attached sign: "This 0-6-0 saddletank locomotive was built in 1933 by the Avonside Engine Company of Bristol for the Lamport Ironstone Mines Railway in Northamptonshire. After the railway closed in 1969, Robert worked on a number of heritage railways before being acquired by the London Docklands Development Corporation as an example of a twentieth century industrial steam locomotive and was displayed at the site of the former Beckton Gas Works, once the largest producer of "Town Gas" in Europe. In 2000, his new owners, the London Borough of Newham, moved Robert to Stratford station where he stood until 2008 before making way for the expansion of passenger facilities ready for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games..." 569 photos taken in September 2021 with a Sony a7R III (mainly) and a Sony a6000 (zoomed in from distance) and processed in Reality Capture.
