WC 6614 |
| Description: |
A nice lashup, that by todays standard would probably make you keel over, waits at New Brighton under morning clouds. The trailing units were WC 7585, IC 6071, and WC 2005. All are now retired or scrapped except for the 2005. I swear this must have been 400 speed film...... Date Approx, photo scanned. |
