Locomotive 62712 “Morayshire” is preserved on the Bo’ness & Kinneil Railway. Built in Darlington in 1928 to a Gresley design, it operated on LNER’s intermediate express lines. Freshly-painted in BR livery, this small but powerful engine delighted casual observers and dedicated photographers alike on a special charter day in early May. This view shows the morning train returning from Manuel, with the locomotive working tender-first.
