The North British Type 2’s by the summer of 1971 seemed to be used only on the most local of local trips, and you were very lucky if you got to see them working trains when out by the line side.
Yet they could always be seen at loco stabling points and in differing positions to the last time that you passed, so they were clearly being used for something!!
Exeter St Davids was always the easiest to see and phot the ‘63’ers’.These were taken 18th July 1971 and show a total of five different locos – 6308 with 6322, and 6322,6334,6343.
Their unusual spoked wheels can be seen.
Many thanks Ron.
