TitleLongcliffe Goods
Date1961
DescriptionAt the same location as 17/2/45, but this time six years earlier with the same ladder to give the shorter route to the tank rather than walking round and up the ramp. Two McConnell water tanks are on the ramp, the nearest converted from a six-wheeler with the central axle removed. The rear one is a four-wheeler. Note the scotch to prevent a runaway. The pipes have no doubt been used to top up the 'J94s' hauling the Stephenson & Manchester Locomotive Societies tour, which appears to be departing from Longcliffe for Hopton Top.
