Speedy Childcare!
Bit of a murky history the poor car and Interesting that someone on a well known auction site tried to sell(read scam) the very same car a few years back.
Really?
Yes!
What happened?
In 2017 someone tried to sell the car on eBay using some rally photos. I don’t think thecar was registered with the dvla at the time.
Nothing suspicious about that at all…
I’m kidding…
I’m keeping quiet this time…
Hi Ian, sorry only just seen that you had posted details of the locomotives life, interesting reading, thank you for posting.
Nice moustache.
Not A Problem…
I had to look the history up. The loco is (for me…) too old or obscure for me to know anything about it…!
I’m in a similar position to you, I was 8 months old when the loco was withdrawn! but have an interest in the L&Y, The Midland and the North Eastern Railway, especially the Midland, who built the line where I grew up at Normanton, West Yorks, now sadly reduced to just a double track secondary line, from being a main line station with extensive goods yards and motive power depot.
I do have this shed plate, from the old depot, although what it was attached to in the past, haven’t a clue.
I will have to pop down and visit the Great Central, please keep posting the photo’s
