Hitchin

A rail tour that has featured elsewhere on my photo-stream, this is the SLS Seven Branch Line tour of 14 April 1962. The Bedford to Hitchin leg was worked by Fowler 3P 2.6.2T 40026, whereupon ex-GNR J52 class 0.6.0ST 1247 carried on up the ECML to Hatfield and thence to Luton Bute Street.

 

Scanned from a Kodachrome slide taken by JM Jarvis, acquired from the collection of the late David Eatwell.
