Description:Model locomotive made from wood by the joiners at W.G. Bagnall's, photographed on Meyrick Road. The body was built over a car chassis and therefore had to be road taxed.

The locomotive was Bagnall's entry in the Stafford Pageant and represents the film 'The Titfield Thunderbolt'.

The houses behind the locomotive still stand and the one behind the street lamp still has its name 'Roseville' hanging in the porch. The houses on the far left are on Alexandra Road.
