82031 on the Severn Valley Branch
45 of these locomotives, numbered 82000-82044, were built at BR’s Swindon works between 1952 and 1955. All 45 began service in lined black livery, but many of those that worked on the BR Western Region were later repainted in lined green or latterly in unlined green livery.<ref>82045 Steam Locomotive Trust web site</ref>
At least seven eight of the class were photographed in service on the Severn Valley Branch while allocated to Shrewsbury shed:<ref>BR Database</ref>
