I have added a new collection of 35 photos of the EM1 & EM2 electric locos.
Originally envisaged by Nigel Gresley at the LNER only one loco was built due to the outbreak of the Second World War LNER 6000. After the war this loco was shipped to Holland and gained the nickname 'Tommy' and is seen here at a unknown location in Holland

Once back in the UK it was officially named Tommy and renumbered 26000
