    From a contact who doesn't post on here,
    121/147 30773 is approaching St Mary Cray Jn with the South Eastern Mainline flyover in the background.
    Long before the Kent Coast modernisation and four tracks from Bickley Jn to Swanley, completed in 1959.

    Hi Neil,

    Image 43 of 49 is at Waterloo with the 1930's signal box partly visible behind the loco smokebox.

    Incidentally 27/49 shows the loco paired with a Lord Nelson tender. An occasional but rarely photographed combination.

    Cheers, Neil
