==4930 Hagley Hall in Service==
4930 Hagley Hall is a GWR Collett 4900 Hall Class locomotive. The Hall class was a mixed traffic locomotive, serving a similar role on the GWR to that carried out by the Stanier ‘Black 5’ on the LMS. Stanier worked for the GWR before moving to the LMS, and the Black 5 drew on many of the Hall’s design features.
==Current overhaul==
*The current overhaul will allow 4930 to run with the correct Collet style tender rather than its the Hawksworth style one seen in the photograph, following an exchange with the custodians of [[6990 Witherslack Hall]] on October 8, 2013.
*On 11 August 2015, 4930 moved to the boiler shop for the boiler to be lifted.
