Leeds 180 and Blackpool 166
I found these three pictures in amongst some family photos taken in 1984.
1 & 2. One Sunday afternoon I was working as a volunteer Gate Attendant and Kath was driving 180 and overhead line work was in progress at Glory Mine. The technique was for the bow to be pulled down whilst 180 coasted under the repairs. However Bob miscalculated and the bow hit a large heavy screw jack. The following weekend Kath was presented with the remains of 180's bow.
3. 180 parked at the end of the line demonstrating the superior track layout at that time.
4. Blackpool 166 at Wakebridge.
