Ay up!

65873 looks like York to me. Not sure.

The Taffy I'd say is at Swindon! :shock: How'd it get there?

The K3 photo is interesting as the loco is flanked between two Brush 4s. I suspect that photos of those two classes together are rare.

Given that the last K3 (excepting the stationary boilers) had been withdrawn by the time D1504 was released to traffic, and the one on the right is D1537, this photo must have been taken late in 1963.

As an aside, D1537 has a claim to fame because it was in charge of the last loco hauled train on the East Lincs line between Grimsby and Peterborough in 1970.

The K3 is at New England and was there as a stationary boiler until early 1965.
