LNER Class A4 4469 Sir Ralph Wedgwood

LNER Class A4 No. 4469 Sir Ralph Wedgwood was an A4 Class locomotive of the LNER. Built at the LNER's Doncaster workshops as Maker's No. 1871/1938 and originally named ''Gadwall,'' No. 4469 was later renamed Sir Ralph Wedgwood in March 1939 in recognition of Wedgwood's sixteen years of service as Chief Officer of the LNER between 1923 and 1939.
==Construction and entry to service==
No. 4469 was built at the LNER's Doncaster workshops as Maker's No.1871 in 1938. It received the name ''Gadwall'', and was allocated to Gateshead shed on completion. It was paired with non-corridor tender No. 5672 built new in 1938; as one of the A4 class locomotives built for general express duties it was painted in Garter Blue.
In March 1939, No. 4469 was formally renamed ''Sir Ralph Wedgwood'' shortly before the retirement of its namesake. This was one of three locomotives to be named after LNER officials in that year, the others being No. 4499 ''Sir Murrough Wilson'' (originally ''Pochard'', renamed April 1939) and 4500 ''Sir Ronald Matthews'' (formerly ''Garganey'', renamed March 1939). Following the outbreak of World War II, No. 4469 initially retained its garter blue livery before being repainted into wartime black. The valances over the driving wheels were also removed for ease of access to the locomotive's valve gear.
