60125 photo 32660 - this looks like a location that came up in the A3 pictures, the general consensus was between Potters Bar and Brookmans Park.

60142 Edward Fletcher 32663.html
The loco in photo 32663 appears to have a nameplate with a crest, if so it would not be Edward Fletcher.
I remember 60142 was a regular performer from Edinburgh on the Southbound Flying Scotsman during one early 1950's summer,usually in pristine condition although it wasn't a Haymarket engine.

Re: Peppercorn A1 Pacifics in the 50's & 60's Pt 1
I know this is already identified as Finsbury Park (actually on one of the Fast lines), but in case of interest, from the AWS just peeping in at the bottom, Curlew must be on the Down Fast (Plat.5).neildimmer wrote: " Hi All

I agree heartwholedly with all three.Flamingo wrote:60125 photo 32660 - this looks like a location that came up in the A3 pictures, the general consensus was between Potters Bar and Brookmans Park.
60129 photo 32679 - New Southgate
60133 photo 32664 - Finsbury Park?
32660 - not very far south of Hawkshead bridge, heading north, I reckon.
32679 - about 300 yards north of N.S. station on the Down Fast
32664 - Definitely FP (on the DF). The roof above the loco is that of No.3 signal box.

Re: Peppercorn A1 Pacifics in the 50's & 60's Pt 1
Yes. A number '4' is reasonably clear in the right position on the smokebox door plate, so being a crested nameplate and the only one in the 6014* segment, it can only be 60147 North Eastern.v3man wrote:60142 Edward Fletcher 32663.html

Re: Peppercorn A1 Pacifics in the 50's & 60's Pt 1
And before anyone else gets in, it (North Eastern) has to be a Gateshead loco because of the external condition.
Hi interested in the area served by 52D. also researching colliery wagonways from same area.
