This is a nice one. Imagine that lot at the end of a platform these days! Scary PA announcements, dayglo jackets, PCSO (Transport), risk assessments - all things in the future then! This is an unusual scene. A summer Saturday working - the 12.15pm from Weston-super-Mare to Sheffield, hauled by an ex-LNER B1, arriving at Bristol. It was taken by Dad on 8.8.1964. The Taunton MRC Bath Green Park layout was featured in the January 2012 Railway Modeller and among the photos was another LNER B1 61143 recalling a similar duty on 12.9.1964.

The map location seems a long way from Menheniot - please point out if I am in the wrong location.

The number and name are almost unreadable, both on the negative and the scan, but the former could be 4061. With Castle steam pipes and no cab side windows this looks like a Star. If anyone has a better identity please suggest it.
