Lots of great prototypical coaching stock on there, 1950s built CIE coaches that lasted thro' BnT livery to the 1980s, Park royals, 4w Luggage vans etc. I have looked for and not found any additional photos or video of the Amiens street turntable using vacuum (or any additional turntables for that matter). Most photos I have seen, seem to have the device removed in favor of a release lever to be powered around manually. Apart from the 121s, the end of steam and introduction of double cabbed diesels probably meant that the device was not maintained or replaced 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder was it a test run? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Dangerous Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 How are the 121's being transported? Not by road, I hope? Photo taken in Lithuania this morning... 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
