Sirs.
Don't forget the 9Fs and also the Crosti boilered ones. have K3s been mentioned. We changed over at Skelton Yard or if it was a brakie then Dringhouses. We swapped trains off Garretts to work forward with Q6s or WDs or V2s.
Our B16/1s wnet over the hills and far away to Colne via Bilton.Ripon. Harrogate etc. If you want to go to 1975 I worked Princess Elizabeth, Sarah Siddons and a Jubilee Line underground set and others including that gwr (spit) infamous Hall which run hot all the way to Shildon!! The regular B1 we got was 61018 on the parcels Yk to Dtn if our Green arrow failed on the EP to KX worked forward by York men with the added Scarb' portion.
JB.
