Two engines at the main crash site and another is some distance away. I don't know where the other one is.
The covers to every issue of Engine's 'Fanbelt' fanzine, which were produced by Nottingham-based Engine fans Tony and Alison Perkins (AKA 'The Engineers').
Price: 15p / 20p
These home-made black-and-white pamphlets were produced monthly, between October 1988 and January 1990. They were distributed at gigs and by post via a mailing list. The fanzines featured Engine's live schedules, interviews with the band, photos, trivia, cartoons, and stories from the road.
'Fanbelt' was undoubtedly a labour of love for those who produced it, and it was also much appreciated by the grateful Engine fans who read it.

I was in Laurinburg, NC for a work related event. After the event, since my wife had to work, I continued on to Hamlet to visit the depot and museums. Seaboard Air Line engine 1114 on display in Hamlet, NC.
It may be called the engine shed, but the first thing that was admitted to us on a tour of the building was that it "definitely wasn't an engine shed"...
It is quite apparent that the openings at either end are nowhere large enough, even after alteration, to have accommodated engines. HS have told me that their research suggests it was a pug shed, but it is interesting that the c1942 OS map only shows a single track abutting the south side - if it was was for pugs, then I would've expected at least two tracks taking the width of the building - you wouldn't have a shed for housing locomotives that was three times wider than it needed to be. I would also have expected the central opening to have been larger, even for small pug engines.
Far more likely, I think, is that it was a simple goods shed, with a central opening large enough for flatbed trucks or open wagons.
Here we were conducting an engine disassembly. There were two diesel engines: a Westerbeke 120 in-line six cylinder, and a Westerbeke 50 in-line four. Both engines were take-outs from boats that needed to be repowered; they were tired or broken beyond economically reasonable repair. As part of our Propulsion 1 course we discuss engine architecture and basic operation. By taking these engines apart, the students get to see the parts of the engine they learned about in class and how they fit together relative to the engine as a whole. We use tired engines for this purpose because we don’t expect the students to know enough to get the engine working properly. Indeed, we will not even attempt to rebuild these engines. The students also get to use their wrenches and sockets for the first time.
