BR Standard 3MT 2-6-2T 82018, with rebuilt Bulleid 'Merchant Navy' class pacific 35010 ''Blue Star'', at Clapham Junction in summer 1966. Steam on the Southern Region had one more year to go, but neither loco lasted that long.
85018 was withdrawn very soon after this photo was taken, in July 1966, and 35010 was withdrawn two months later, in September.
85018 was scrapped in September 1966, but 35010 ended up at Woodhams Brothers scrapyard, at Barry, where it was seen in 1982:

The loco was rescued from there, but is still in 'scrapyard' condition today (2018) at the Colne Valley Railway.
None of the 3MTs were preserved, but there is an active project to build a 'new' member of the class, at the Severn Valley Railway.

On Saturday 27th February 1982 an Open Day was held at Doncaster Works to allow visitors to pay their respects to the remaining Deltics stored there. The event was very well patronised and raised a large sum for charity. On display were 55002, 004, 005, 007, 008, 009, 010, 011, 013, 015, 016, 017, 019, 021, and 022.
As you can see, the locos were well spaced out allowing the crowds to swarm between them.
I tried to take a photo in direct sunlight. It was much harder than I anticipated.
Sols as doll:
She had a basic body. She also had a yellow cassette recorder and white sandals.
You could get them in three different colors.
Red haired Sindy had a red jumpsuit.
Brunette Sindy had a green jumpsuit.
Blonde Sindy had a golden jumpsuit.
There was another blue jumpsuit produced by Pedigree, but that was never advertised in any catalog.

I am currently scanning lots and lots of negatives from my dad that I didn't really have the chance to see properly before. Some I had made a print of but most are new to me. I have no idea who the people are in the pictures, only the info that's written on the archival sheets.
