    I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas
    Also many thanks to all who have replied with locations, I will be updating them later tonight

    Final collection for Christmas Eve

    The 5101 Class were medium-sized tank engines used for suburban and local passenger services all over the Great Western Railway system. The class was an updated version, by Collett, of Churchward's 1903 3100/5100 Class. Over 140 photos in this collection starting with 4100

    then 10 pages of photos to 5194

    Hi Neil,

    A few locations for the records..
    54/140 4145 Exeter St Davids
    58/140 Newton Abbot West
    71/140 4160 Minehead
    94/140 6106 Taplow in the very early days of GWS with a GW Centenary saloon
    137/140 5195 Probably Newton Abbot, judging by the signals half way along the other platform.

    Definitely an mental exercise compared to TV this evening!

    Cheers, Neil
