Some sad pictures. Mar 24, 2015 11:05:50 GMT

Morning All,

I recently posted some pictures on Flickr showing trains of London Transport pre '36 Standard Stock awaiting their fate at George Cohen's scrapyard near Kettering. If anyone can bring themselves to look at them, this is the first one in the Photostream (have a hanky handy) :

R1331. 30935 at Cohen's, Kettering. 4th April, 1964. by Ron Fisher, on Flickr

They are mixed up with pictures of ex Southern Railway locomotives also waiting to be turned into razor blades, so you will have to scroll down a bit. Alternatively, they can also be found in this album of London Transport pictures :

I have posted links to some of the pictures in this album before, so some of you may have seen some of the pictures already. However, there are some other new ones in there as well as the scrapyard ones, and any new members probably won't have seen any of them.

Hope that they are of interest,

Ron Fisher.
