Priestfield junction.
Back to Priestfield we go, and herald this feast for your eyes ...
D213 " Andania " + D235 " Apapa " - a 1965 photo, of which I don't have Michael Mensings more detailed notes. I have been doing a bit of delving on those workings that had a pair up front. A common denominator that I have discovered is that P71 BNS / BSH - Blackpool - see the Ocker Hill photo - generally seems to have a pair on. It is nothing to do with the loadings, as I will show in the days ahead. It now seems clear that said working was booked for a pair. clearly suggesting a balancing working....
Again note the route to the right, the ex OWW over which D1000 & D1004 worked the 2H65 driver training programme in May & June,1962....
Priestfield is the first tram stop out of Wolverhampton to use the ex GWR track bed featured here. Imagine this pair of monsters whistling up the A41 !!!
