Of the LE&E's 10 challengers, three were fitted with grey boiler jackets in 1939. Here we see number 540 hauling a mixed freight out of town. The three engines were also fitted with roller bearings, and because of such, were used on mail and express trains in addition to the usual fast freight assignments.

WOW they almost remind me of the D&H challengers but this is more epic.
