skinner75 Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 any idea what the four, what look like grilles, above the cab windows of the two locos in the second last row from the back are?
josefstadt Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 I’d hazard a guess that the outer skin of the loco's bodywork has yet to be applied and what you can see are the structural members.
Mayner Posted May 3, 2013 Posted May 3, 2013 An interesting find, conditions were certainly cramped compared to Diesel No 1 in Inchacore. The Metrovicks were assembled in a British Railways Carriage shops in Manchester, carriages are visible in the bays on the right. At the time the choice of Metrovick may have not been so odd they had supplied most of British and South African straight electrics and Crossley had a good name as an engine builder.
