A bumper selection today. Unfortunately a few seen to be suffering from "Sticky Thumbprint Syndrome" but they are posted here warts and all.
As usual, assumed copyright is with me but WT'ers are free to use for personal use and if you wish to publish/re-post just shout up and I'll try and sort some better scans.
Todays date is the 22nd May 1937 and we will start with a little bit of G+SWR then the Caley at St Rollox and Polmadie before moving onto the NBR at Eastfield.
Please,please,please, if you have anything you can add to my meagre captions dive in and post away.
2P 579 at the Ex G+SWR terminus at St Enochs. The photographer notes that this was taken at 9:45pm.
G+SWR 4-4-0 14517 awaiting scrapping at St Rollox
Wee Puggie 16005 at St Rollox
CR Single 123's tender at St Rollox
CR 123 with what looks like the tender from HR Jones Goods 103 in front.
CR 17317 at Polmadie. The photographer says "note tender" presumable because it is of an unusual type. Cue Caley expert....
CR 16155 at Polmadie. Jim isn't this what you made those lovely wheels for in S?
0-4-4t 1518(X) and A.N. Other at Polmadie. It is times like this that smokebox door plates come into their own...
CR 4-6-2t 15358 at Polmadie
4-6-0 14643. I presume this to be at Polmadie also but the photo unhelpfully just says "Pickersgill 1926"
We shall now take a short break while our photographer decamps across town to Eastfield.
