    I have added a collection of Urie-Maunsell King Arthurs built for the SR
    instead of being Eastleigh built like the other King Arthurs these were built in Scotland by North British (NBL)

    Included are 3 Pre war photos taken in 1939

    Interesting seeing the "Arthurs" at Basingstoke in 1960. I remember these particular locos on the Reading - Basingstoke (and beyond) turns at the time.
