Here we go again, another half dozen, this time in and around Toton.
As before, if you want anything re-scanned at a higher dpi shout up.
Assumed copyright is with me (might be a couple of exceptions - will point them out when we get there), you are all free to use them for personal use. If you wish to re-post/publish drop me a line and I''ll try and get a better scan.
The date is the 5th June 1937.
Straight in with a subject that typifies Toton. Garratt 4977 poses in the garden.
4977 again.
This print and the next is marked "negative sold to W. Potter". If Mr Potter or his successors have any objections to these images being posted here I will of course remove them.
Garratt 4980 out and about. I'll have a play later to see if the wagons will come up any clearer.
Flatiron 2032 and driver pause for the camera.
8F 8047. The back of the print just says "New Stanier" Again, I'll have a play with the wagons.
Just for Ian.
G&SWR 0-6-2t 16906 is out amongst some interesting wagonry.
16906 just shows her bunker rear. The left wagon is Settle Speakman and the right I suspect as a Butterley.
That's it for now. Having finished with a little bit of Scotland the next couple of "Days Out" will be around Glasgow then on to Saltburn, York, Doncaster, Leeds, Manchester, Gorton (I know it's Manchester as well!!), Liverpool, Chester, North Wales, Wolverhampton, Birmingham, Derby, the High Peak and a little bit of narrow gauge. I don't think I've missed anything but.....
