Prototype A Day Out in Leeds

[Rob R]

A bumper selection here from the Leeds area.

Once again, copyright is with me but WT'ers help yourselves for personal use.
If you wish to repost/publish shout and I'll sort some better scans if possible.

Only a couple of these are dated - 31st July 1937 but I suspect that they were all taken on the same day.

391 is well coaled but not looking as pretty as when S.W. Johnson turned her out in 1888. Leeds Holbeck.

4F 3960 turned out by Armstrong Whitworth on the last day of 1921. Leeds Holbeck.


1F 1802. Leeds Holbeck.


1F 1842. Leeds Holbeck.


3F 3514. Leeds Holbeck.


Crab 2885. As rebuilt 1931 with Lentz valvegear. Leeds Holbeck.


8F 8071 at Stourton Leeds. L&Y Diag 3 van to the right?


Inside Stourton Roundhouse. From left to right:- 4016, 34xx, 7469, 9538, 3357, 3852, 1781?

A short break whilst we hop across to the other side of town.

Edit:- Missing photo inserted....

Superb Rob,

I have a GN triplet from the 6 wheeled coaches and a J50 in my stash

Interesting to see the GN and NE locos didn't stray too far from their own lines. Whereas the LMS shots show, obviously, Midland but also L&Y (crab), LMS standard locos.

The highlight is the photo of the articulated carriages.

No problem Chas.
There is no point having historical photos stuck in an album with no one to look at them, which reminds me, I have a few more that need scanning and posting.
