R0370. D11 class 4-4-0 62668 JUTLAND at Nottingham Victoria. July, 1960.

R370. Not the best of pictures I’d be the first to agree, but included here because colour pictures of the Great Central Directors seem to be a bit of a rarity.

 

The Directors, LNER class D11 4-4-0s, were introduced by John Robinson in 1919 as an improved version of the earlier D10 class. This one, 62668 JUTLAND, was built in 1922 and withdrawn in November 1960 four months after I saw it at Nottingham Victoria in July of that year.
