60006 and a departmental vehicle at Grantham

[Zaphod Scotsman]

Here are two photos taken at Grantham on 3rd October 1963. A begrimed 60006 is moving south along the goods loop, past the north end of the station. Two points of interest are:

the coach in the background of the first picture, which is in departmental use a moblle workhop but I believe it is of GCR origin and is these days part of the NRM collection, being on loan to the GCR Rolling Stock Trust folk at Ruddington - is this correct?

in the second picture note the attire of Grantham Driver Ernie Woollatt, who looks like he's dressed for a diesel job but ended up on a dirty A4 instead!

I don't see any pictures.

Sorry Zaphod, this and several other pictures were removed some time ago when I reached the limit on the number of permitted attachments.

What you could do, John, is set up your own Flickr site and upload all your photographs to that.

Then all you would need to do is provide the link to each one.

Thanks for the suggestion - that seems to be a good way forward. I'll probably work on it later in the year, when I hope to have a bit more time, and see how it goes.
