Could it be a shunting engine? I'm not into locomotives!

Hi Chris,
I spotted the steering wheel and mirror also so can rule out being a diesel shunter. If you zoom up the photo you will see what looks like the letters LMS on the door, so could be a railway lorry on an adjacent platform. As to make, I would give a wild guess of Thornycroft or Albion.
