Re: 629 1011 664 Preston depot

It is always fascinating working these things out. It won't be 505 next to
228, she kept her damaged end right up to going to be scrapped. Pictures
here in 77 at Hawthorn.
There is a shot of her somewhere in the dead of night (good end showing) of
her, under her own power, headlight on, on her way to Preston - before
going to Haddon.
Cheers
