==4150 in service==
‘Large prairie’ tanks were a common sight on the GWR, with more than 300 built between 1903 and 1949 to the same basic design. The locomotives were designed to haul semi-fast and suburban passenger services to tight schedules, and were also used on medium distance freight services. A number of Large Prairies were allocated to Kidderminster and Shrewsbury sheds and were regularly used on the Severn Valley Railway in it declining years.
