New 60004 photo is at Eaglescliffe
taken on the 19th September 1965 while working the Blyth & Tyne railtour.

The A4 would come off the tour train at Eaglecliffe as British Railway said it could not cross over the S&D flat crossing at Darlington , which is odd as the crossing crosses the East Coast main line which had A4,s crossing it every day.

Although I don't see it mentioned Neil, the well-known location of the 3rd 60004 photo
( http://railway-photography.smugmug.com/ ... -m9BPGtN/M )
may well already be known to you, but in case not, it's between the two Welwyn Tunnels with the train being on the Up Main. (The distinctive colour-light signal seen in the background at the entrance to the tunnel is the give-away - it was Woolmer Green box's 'splitting' Down Distant signals.)
