With a bit of help from some in the know, I have been able to identify the origins of this tender in use as a snowplough at Tinsley back in the 70s as a GNR Type B, however, I would like any further information on this tender if at all possible.
Such as
What type of locos could it have been attached to?
When was it converted to a snow plough and where would this have been this done?
When was it allocated to Tinsley?
What was its eventual fate?

Any help would be much appreciated :D

Good morning all

The Ivatt type B was the top of the range GNR tender.
It would have been attached to classes; C1, C2, K2, K3, O1, O2, and odd examples of other classes.
