    That last picture of 30860 at Eastleigh is facinating - not so much for the loco but the brand new steel inner fireboxes on the right. Plenty of surviving Bulleid pacifics could make good use of them today if only they were available. I wonder how long Eastleigh continued to manufacture these before steam's demise.

    The photos you have suggested as Bournmouth West are correct.

    Yes I am an active volunteer
    With the high sided tender, these must be some of the best looking locos around....!
