7808 Cookham Manor is a Great Western Railway 7800 'Manor' Class steam locomotive . It was built in 1938 at Swindon Works , withdrawn from service in December 1965 and purchased directly from British Railways for preservation by John Mynors, a member of the Great Western Society , in 1965–66.[2] 'Cookham Manor' was the only 'Manor' Class locomotive to have been bought directly from BR. Initially it was stored at Ashchurch , until moving to Didcot in August 1970.[3]
It was said to be considered highly by the crews that operated it, and unusually for the class, the locomotive was fitted with a larger 4,000-imperial-gallon (18,000 L; 4,800 US gal) water tender .
The locomotive initially saw considerable main line use soon after preservation, but is currently on static display awaiting a major overhaul at Didcot Railway Centre .
The locomotive cost £3,986 excluding the tender when built in 1938, and had travelled 913,744 miles (1,470,528 km ) by 28 December 1963.[3]
