performing locally though mainly after dark. A very rare 080110 working was
37601 on up “vans” around 1am and a noisy return on S96 dragging 86702…Most
have been in darkness though.
On
this day in history…090186 73005 dragged SR “swamp units”
from Wolverton Wks back to Wimbledon ..Do you have
local gen snippets like these??, all very welcome on our expanding local
database 1957-2010.
