GNRi1959 Posted October 15, 2022 Posted October 15, 2022 Pictured during track relaying at Omagh - anyone know the wagon type in shot and also is the loco an LQG 0-6-0 though it appears to be marked D No.119 Can anyone shed light on it please? Quote
Galteemore Posted October 15, 2022 Posted October 15, 2022 (edited) Yes it’s an LQG. Originally 78 ‘Pettigo’ built 1908, re numbered 1937, withdrawn in 1959. The D refers to the power class, not the loco class. The power class rating allowed planners to allocate locos for particular tasks, D being heavy goods. Most famous D class on GN was the SG3. First wagon looks a standard GN open. Others are ballast I think. Edited October 15, 2022 by Galteemore 1 1 2 Quote
