    10/74 is Holgate but leaving rather than approaching York. An interesting picture of 60800 in view of its later preservation appearences on the Scarborough line.

    Batch 3

    12/29 = South Yard of the NRM York during the May 2008 Railfest event, as seen here:- DSCF3263_edited copy.jpg

    I have added 3 new photos to the collection featuring Thompson's rebuild of Gresley's pioneer A1 1470/470/60113 Great Northern
    Rebuilt as the sole member of class A1/1
    The 3 photos feature the loco just after it was rebuilt as 4470 Great Northern with straight nameplate
    https://railway-photography.smugmug...Great-Northern/60113-Great-Northern/i-JbwtzLC
    The next 2 of 60113 are with nameplate and plaque removed but backing still there, and the final photo with just a straight nameplate
