    The picture (#5) of 42086 is not on the Longmoor Military Railway. It is at Hassocks soon after the 8th August 1958 when the loco collided with a 4 SUB electric unit due to a signalling error.

    The pictures of 75027 are at Sheffield Park, not Longmoor. It was David Shepherd's 75029 (with a double chimney) which was stored at Longmoor for a while.

    The buildings don't look like Eastleigh. The LMR had a couple of I3 4-4-2 tanks among a wide variety of locos which were begged or borrowed in the early 1940's.

    Cheers, Neil
