| Lot 434 | A worksplate, CEGIELSKI, 1382, 1949, from a standard gauge Ty45 class 2-10-0 of the type widely used on PKP (Polish State Railways), an improved version of the pre-war Ty37 2-10-0.

It worked all its life at Kopalnia (Coal mine) Ziemowit, near Katowice in Upper Silesia. Withdrawn in the late 1970s. Cast aluminium, 12"x8½", curved with bevelled edge, the front cleaned. £100-200 |
