1969 - Pannier on the 'Pullman'..
Ex-GWR / London Transport 0-6-0PT L.99 on a rubbish train - known as the 'Watford Pullman' - at Croxley Tip, in spring 1969.
The loco was GWR/BR 7715, and was withdrawn by LT later in 1969, and preserved, at the Buckinghamshire Railway Centre.
Croxley Tip closed down in the late '70s, and today (2018) the site is largely overgrown.. L.99 is back at Quainton, awaiting boiler repairs and overhaul.
Restored from a grainy unfocussed original..
