Newton Heath Manchester Lancashire 29th June 1968

Newton Heath Manchester Lancashire 29th June 1968
Cabside number Stanier Black 5 4-6-0 44845, built at Crewe in 1944. I am contemplating the last day of steam at Newton Heath & the fact that the filthy cab won't ever be cleaned again. I don't think that left hand window has ever been cleaned!

This engine still had 50psi of steam in its boiler but by the end of the day would be cold & ready for its last journey to the scrapyard.
