GWR 1400 Class No. 1462

The Great Western Railways No. 1462 was a 0-4-2T 1400 class tank engine built for the Great Western Railway.
== History ==
The Great Western Railways No. 1462 was built in 1936 at Swindon Works as No. 4862. In 1946, the locomotive along with the rest of its class were rebranded as the 1400 class, as the GWR converted twelve of its 2800 Class of consolidations to burn oil, reassigning the 4800 class to that series of experimental locomotives.
After this, it carried on it’s existence as normal, before being cut up for scrap in November 1963.
== Trivia ==
*No. 1462 had a brief role in the film The Titfield Thunderbolt as a stolen locomotive which was later crashed straight into a tree.
