    Now that is the business, the times in the early 60's spent at Reading Station. I remember the various down station pilot locos as if it was yesterday. I would say the picture of 7011 was taken about 1963/4.
    Although they have fans now, we all hated the increasing No. of hydraulics at the time, pushing out the Castles & Kings etc.
