I have found a photo of 3F 3435 dated 1947 at Saltley shed and fitted with a Fowler tender. There is also a photo of the same loco dated 1956 and again with a Fowler tender. Are there any other instances of a 3F with a Fowler tender in place of the usual Johnson one?

I think it was the railway and the sugar beet factory that polluted the Ouse upstream of York. There was a lot of Rose Bay Willow Herb beside the river particularly on the west bank.

There is an original feature of York Station (one of many) that appeals to me and I wondered for a long time how I would be able to replicate it. It is the North Eastern Railway foliated monogram signal brackets which have to be retained as part of the original Grade 2 listed building. They have been retained and now carry TV screens. The photo shows the intricate detail. My son has successfully 3D printed some from the photograph

That's truly remarkable. I lived just across the River Ouse and the Station and surrounding buildings were a happy hunting ground for me. I have been building my model for 20 years. Currently i.am on with the 1951 colour light signalling.
