Grahamston Goods

Ex-works 20211 shunts Falkirk Grahamston goods yard on 23rd May 1978, with some contemporary railway vehicles on the right.

This was a Tinsley loco at the time, and I guess it had been overhauled at Glasgow Works then "borrowed" by Eastfield for some trip freight work. Not for long however, as I have seen a photo of it on a PW working at Warwick only 4 days later !

I was visiting the SRPS Wallace St Goods depot to the east of this, and luckily walked over with my Instamatic to take a picture of this class 20 whistling away in the goods yard. Not many photos taken here.

Nowadays this location is a Tesco car park, with their petrol station roughly where the vans are parked here.
