No. 5526 was built at Swindon Works in May 1928 as part of Lot 251, and cost the princely sum of £3,602 (which included £737 for the boiler!). Until 1958 she was almost exclusively based in the West Country, including Exeter and Plymouth and for much of the time at Truro, where workings would have included branch line services to Falmouth and Newquay, etc.
