    In 1969 Scotsman was shipped from Liverpool Docks to the USA. It first went to Edge Hill MPD (a diesel depot then) and then it was towed along the Bootle branch to the docks for onwards shipment, on the Saxonia, to the USA.

    yeah it was from the bottom of Millers bridge on Regent road.
    I knew the driver who drove it from Edge hill when it came back and was all rusty.

    but my dad reckons he saw it on a railtour in the mid 1960s running in LNER livery but we've never been able to find any evidence.

    Good selection of photos you have there Neil.

    Very rare to find photos of 4472/60103 when it was at Llangollen. Thanks for sharing.
