    The second photo shows the number on the tender buffer beam ending in 00

    Picture 13 doesn't look like any place on the MHR.

    More like the GCR, I'd have thought

    Picture 13's Loughborough Central, circa 2002.
    Picture 18 is Pickering. 16 I'd say more than likely NRM.
    I'd also wager picture 4 is 70s rather than 60s - the presence of Britannia, for one, seems unlikely before that!

    Picture 4 is definately after May 1978 as the Brit is fully painted. Pedantic mode Bridgnorth with no 'e' mind you I am a fine one to speak my spelling is awful!

    Looks like Rothley?

    The two photos at Longmoor are almost certainly 600 at the last open day, at Longmoor Downs Station.

    Pic 13 is platform 1 at Loughborough G.C.R. I agree that pic 4 is after May 1978 at Bridgnorth.
