    When you place a Bo-Bo locomotive on a turntable and then go to the other end, forwards becomes backwards, right?

    Thats what happens if you use triple valves instead of distributors

    Always check the alignment of the turntable before entering...

    Forgot to mention, the turntable picture isn't a historic one, but this happened yesterday.

    AFAIK with Triple valves you need to completely release the brake before making a further, heavier application, you cant just put a bit more brake on.

    Ie Applies brake, wants a heavier application, releases more air but nothing happens

    I think we can identify the Shedmaster as perhaps the very first person to be “disgusted of Tunbridge Wells”.

    That may be so (although I wouldn't say that nothing happens, just less happens) but it is quite unlikely that such a modern Locomotive would be equipped with triple valves.

    Yes, a real spider's web, but common for electrics on turntables.

    More interesting when you consider that two cranes were ordered to re-rail the loco. How the....?

    Looks a bit like Innsbruck, but the over bridge should be nearer.

    I know OBB is in the bigger writing, but it's a DB loco that has hopped off the turntable.

    These days those multi-system locos end up all over. Nothing new, of course, I remember seeing a DB E-lok in the old blue livery near the Austria - Jugoslavia border in the early 70s. Couldn't be more specific, sadly, I was with my parents in a car on a run from near Villach to Bled.
