Ex-GNofS 4-4-0 at Elgin
Image: © Ben Brooksbank Taken: 26 Aug 1948
Seen from the ex-Great North of Scotland Elgin station, where the lines from Aberdeen via Huntley and via the Buchan Coast, also the branch from Lossiemouth, combine and connect with the ex-Highland line from Keith to Inverness, a GNSR 4-4-0 is engaged in shunting - but then the GNoSR had virtually no other types than 4-4-0s, for all duties. This is Johnson/Pickersgill 4-4-0 (LNER class D41) No. 2251 (No. 6907 until 1946), built 2/1898 and withdrawn as No. 62251 in 11/51; here still in LNER livery.
