Coronation Class 4-6-2 46248 'City of Leeds' in the middle of the view. Note the three young trainspotters wandering across the yard looking for locomotive numbers. This was very normal behaviour. Sometimes you would be 'allowed' round on a 'nod and a wink' basis, at others you would be chased out, all depending on the attitude of the person in charge. These lads are certainly not being furtive about their activities.
