Supplementing the converted No. 8700 (renumbered No. 9700), ten of the Collett '8750' class 0-6-0PTs were built new in 1933 for the traffic on the Metropolitan Underground route from Paddington to Smithfield, with condensing apparatus and other modifications. No. 9701 (built 9/33, withdrawn 1/61) is seen here off the end the Arrival platforms at Paddington, with the great Goods Station behind, beyond the electrified Hammersmith & City lines.
