Cast brass plate 'SOUTHERN' - as experimentally affixed to the tender sides of the two first built Bulleid Pacific locomotives 21C1 'Channel Packet' and 21C2 'Union Castle' in 1941.
For reasons of cost and/or aesthetics, but more likely that the first two locos were overweight, the cast numberplates and tender plates were not continued and the locos reverted to painted numbers/letters.
Therefore, one of only four such plates fitted and possibly the only survivor, a rare opportunity.

Something different! H.A Ivatt's retirement present for auction!
The Bulleid Society extends its thanks to its President, David Bulleid (O.V.S Bulleid's grandson) for donating H. A Ivatt's retirement present to the Society in order to sell at auction towards its restoration funds.
The gift to Ivatt, upon his retirement from the GNR, was an oil on canvas study of Ivatt, in his office with a picture of one of his locomotives on the wall behind.
The frame bears a plaque 'Presented to H. A Ivatt Esq on his retirement by the Officers and salaried staff of the Locomotive, Carriage and Wagon Department of the Great Northern Railway Company, 1911'.
The link here, of course, is that Bulleid was an apprentice under Ivatt and during that time he married Ivatt's youngest daughter, Marjorie.
The painting has been in the care of the Bulleid family for many years.
It is due to be auctioned at Railwayana UK Ltd's online auction, running from March 1-3, 2024.
