Filthy, horrible old steam engines (and a lot more) is probably what the owner of the sparkling white Ford said as his journey along the A5 near Atherstone was rudely interrupted by the passage of a light steam loco belching smoke. The loco was William Francis a rare Beyer-Peacock Garrett 0-4-4-0 (6841/1937) working from the main site of Baddesley Colliery to the exchange sidings with the West Coast line. Today the Garrett survives as part of the National Collection, the Ford is probably landfill. Possibly Autumn 1965, Peter Shosmith visited then.

The crew of British Railways Class 9F 2-10-0 steam locomotive number 92203 Black Prince await the signal to depart from Weybourne Station on the North Norfolk Railway while working the 14:45 Holt to Sheringham service. 92203 was built in 1959 and allocated to heavy ore trains on Merseyside but had a very short working life due to BR's policy of rapid dieselisation and was withdrawn in 1967. It was then purchased for preservation by the artist David Shepherd who named it Black Prince.
