    Morning All,

    I have recently added some pictures of Eastern Region steam in 1960 to my Flickr site. This is the first one and clicking on it will enlarge it and take you to the others :

    They can also be found in the Eastern Region collection which is here :

    More to be added in due course.

    Hope that they are of interest.

    Seconded - great fun going through these. There's a shot of Chamossoire and a V2 which is just beautiful. Grim and elegance in two east coast racehorses. What fun! :)

    Me too. Well, not Low Moor; that was Bradford and foreign territory. Substitute Holbeck, Farnley & Stourton.

    Sorry! Couldn't get everywhere. The only picture that I can recall at Holbeck was 46112 SHERWOOD FORESTER in Black and white. But I haven't started on the B & Ws.....yet. Besides, Leeds wasn't in the Eastern Region!
