They should never have demolished A shop ( GWR works ) – the houses / flats in its place are an eye sore, and as for the turntable !!

OK Guys I am looking for some info on 6000 KGV. Did the bell ring? I have read that the gong had been taken out but one of the tricks used on young fireman was that they had to see if they could throw the coal right down the firebox and hit the end to make the bell ring. Of course this couldnt be done but when the older fireman had a go a colleague would tie a peice of string to the bell and ring it when he took his throw.
Also the bell was pinched by US GI’s in WW2 but gave it back.
If it did ring it would be a good addition to a sound chip.
Over to you.
