Johnme101 liked M59137's post in the thread North Norfolk Railway General Discussion.

Johnme101 liked Flying Phil's post in the thread Windcutter Wagons.
Another first for the Windcutters! [ATTACH] This wagon went up to Leeds to have its wheel tyres "turned" to a correct profile. When it was unloaded I was told that it was actually shunted briefly onto NR rails so the first time a 16Ton Mineral...
