T9 Class in 1962 | ||
I photographed just two T9 class 4-4-0s in the early 1960s. Neither on their true running ground of the South Western Division of the SR, and one, 30120, already a preserved locomotive. Both locos were seen on railtours rather than normal service trains, but at least I have some record of the class. | ||
