Class 06 in Kent
It is well known that an ex-BR Scottish Region (66A Corkerhill shed) class 06 Andrew Barclay (works No.459 built in 1960) 0-4-0 diesel mechanical loco found its way to Kent prior to export, but not so widely known that it was employed, before export to Italy, on shunting duties at Queenborough Wharf on the Isle of Sheppey. During my first of many visits to this fascinating location and railway system I photographed the class 06 in between shunting duties at the wharf attached to an ex-SR brake van (S56184) on 24th January 1971.
