Said to be a 1964 photo of BR scrappings. Looks like a nearly-new 9F 2-10-0 in the background. Other photos like this on the Oct. 26, 2002 ABPR. http://abpr.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi?october02/10-26-02/90715a_being_cut-up._slag_reduction_co._rotherham._7_november_19~.jpg ryarger@rypn.org |

Not quite. 90715 was an ex-War Department "Austerity" 2-8-0, one of hundreds rostered by British Railways after nationalisation. To the left is the distinctive nose of a Bullied Pacific, de-"streamlined". lner4472@bcpl.net |
