Описание: This Spring of 2019 saw the Caledonian Class ‘439’ 0-4-4T No 419 on tour in England. I finally caught up with her at Swanage on Friday March 29th. I started out just South of Norden station waiting to film her double heading the 10:40 from Swanage with Standard ‘4’ Tank 80104 masquerading as 80126, but when this train appeared the Standard Tank was alone. Hightailing it to Swanage to ascertain the state of play, I was relieved to find 419 standing in the run round loop in steam and the word was she had suffered cotter pin troubles that had taken longer to sort than expected. The good news was that she was now going to perform solo on a 2 coach extra so deciding to return to Norden to record this, I waited at the terminus and recorded 419s movements prior to getting coupled up to the two coaches. We then have her arriving and departing Norden, still seemingly a little out of sorts on the departure. I had actually seen the Caley Tank at Dalry Rd shed on July 25th 1963 as BR 55189 after its withdrawal the previous December, but didn’t get a photo. However, I did see her again on August 31st 1975 at the Shildon 150 celebrations and captured her in the dark blue livery.
