Remarks & Notes

The end of steam is approaching on British Railways and it shows. Locomotives were run until they could run no more and then sent for scrap. With only a few weeks before steam disappeared in the Leeds area of Northen England, a sad scene in Holbeck motive power depot. A 4-6-0 and a 2-6-4 tank await their fate in dilapidated surroundings
