Some 1960s Eastern Region steam pictures.

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 :


R508. Condensing N2 69583 at Hitchin. September, 1960. by Ron Fisher, on Flickr

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

B.R. Steamdays - 4 : Eastern Region - a set on Flickr

More to be added in due course.

Hope that they are of interest.

 

Great interest Ron, thanks for posting the links. Just rummaging through them now! Having great fun.

 

There will be a few more in due course. Watch this space...

 

Afternoon All,

A further selection of 1960s Eastern Region steam pictures is now on Flickr. This is the first one and clicking on it will enlarge it and take you to the others :

Hope that they are still of interest.

 

Ron

Do you have any of the Retford area?

 

Well done, Ron, for publishing more of your collection. All facinating... Many thanks

(memo to self - don't look at Ron's collections during the working day!)

 

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!

 

Ron please..............Leeds Central (or Holbeck High Level) It will bring back happy days for me

 

Leeds Central............I used to live on there.......Copley Hill.......Low Moor......

 

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!

Ron.

 

Possibly, but not yet scanned.

Ron.

 

'Sherwood Forester' in black & white is now on Flickr :

Thank you sir.

 

Don't mention it!
