Fat Controller Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 The SR 2-6-0 is at Worting Junction, I think, and the Bulleid Pacific next to some water is at Bevois Park, just north-east of Southampton station. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivercider Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Could 34047 be at Ilfracombe? Here but looking the other way https://www.flickr.com/photos/28178727@N08/15559536802/in/photolist-pGWGcU-gkvhaE-gkvzCn-4ZWC2e-6jAv4f cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulleidnutter Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 First one is probably Eastleigh. 34047 looks like Bournemouth but I could be wrong and the following two are Worting junction. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Storey Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Do you know where these twins are? A 957.jpg Peter That brings back memories!! I used to wander around there as a kid. We lived in George Street, Ryde, when I was very young, but would go back there several times a year later, until it all went electric. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think 34047 is at Bournemouth, because that was a much more cramped site. I think it might be at Weymouth though. Here is 34024 at Weymouth and I think 34047 is in the area visible behind the tender. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardiff Canton and 1071 'Western Renown' from footbridge - 3rd August, 1974 by Arnie Furniss, on Flickr The last photo is probably Carlisle Kingmoor. I am going to disagree with the location of D1916, I too thought Canton at first but the road numbers are wrong. I thought it might be the Bath Road Daily Shed seen from the back of the depot instead of the view from Temple Meads platform, but that is not right. I now think it is Landore, see this view where the road numbers are visible https://www.flickr.com/photos/the_walton_wanderer/8389765970/in/faves-72022549@N03/ There are a couple of oil drums standing in the same spot as the larger collection beside D1916 cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a light-grey rectangular 'slab' just to the right of the rear cab; it's the machine used (in principle) to wash the locos. In all the time I spent around there, I never saw it in use. The loco's a 'foreigner' from Cardiff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a crossover visible behind D1916 which is also visible in your shot in the identical place. I will amend the caption. Strange that D1916 has an almost identical head code as the Deltic which has been identified at Edinburgh Haymarket. It`s a good job I did not use that to place them both at the same location!

Brian, Don't think it's water, but just fields behind Looks like Worting Junction, with the WC on the down Bournemouth line - note the 3rd rail isn't on the two middle tracks which would be the lines to/from Salisbury.

Peter Hi Peter Suspect that's 1E27 on the deltic - probably for working a train from the Scottish to the Eastern region - and 1F10 on the Brush type 4, an internal WR train probably from Padd to ?

Marshall5 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 This is not the Ironclad at KWVR or the one I saw at Carnforth mid 80`s. B 262.jpg Peter It is the one you saw at Carnforth in the 80's by then renumbered 1300. The picture shows the loco in Fairclough's ownership numbered (incorrectly) as something like 1122 (he apparently liked the number but the real loco had been rebuilt with a Belpaire boiler). It is pictured in the owner's builders yard which was on the site of the closed Adlington Great Bear station - cracking name - c. early 1960's. It is now owned by Andy Booth and based at the Ribble Steam Railway although it is often out 'on tour' Cheers, Ray. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

APOLLO Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Not Great Bear station, it was White Bear. I have an old small (off a gas or paraffin station lamp) black on yellow enamelled station name plate from this station, obtained by my dad a thousand (!) years ago. http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/w/white_bear/ The ex L&Y loco was known back then as "Leonards Puffer" !
