20 083 at Fort William. 09/05/83.
The shunter has just shut the ground frame at Fort William station as 20 083 eases down platform 1 while running round its train of two oil tanks. The tanks I suspect would have come from either Mallaig or the nearby traction depot and are being tripped to Mallaig Junction Yard.
Not a high quality image as it was an underexposed 35mm slide taken on Perutz CT100 slide film. I scanned it as I believed 20 083 was one of the few class 20's to retain a through steam pipe but sadly the image isn't of sufficient quality to clearly see it's buffer beam detail. So uploaded more as a record than a decent image.
