    Just a add on to this Photo of A3 60101 Cicero at Hawick, at sometime in the early Sixties I believe it was stored at St Boswells along with sister A3 60100 Spearmint. How long they resided here is also unknown unless someone has further info on the subject. Regards David

    Hi all, I realise this is the same train as a negative I purchased a number of years ago and I originally had on Fotpoc but had it with the wrong location, this train bugs me a bit as I did not recognise the location as St Boswells of the other photo of this train when asked by Bruce. Added to Flickr:- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dwbphotos/8150694665/in/photostream Regards David

    Thanks I added the B1 at St Boswells yesterday and also joined this Forum, as I am from the Borders originaly and known to both Bruce and Matt. Hopefully I can help with some info around St Boswells. I started working Galashiels Goods Office in 1961 and left BR Employment from St Boswells Booking Office in 1967. My father was the guard on the last passenger train on the Tweed Valley Line St Boswells - Tweedmouth in 1964. David Burrell
