leslie10646 Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Good evening MAK I'm 99.99% sure that is not a H&W loco. They only built eight and four were for NI (BCDR and NCC) , none of which looked like that, in fact the H&W machines had a certain family likeness, quite unlike this loco - see - http://www.theyard.info/engineering/trains/trains.asp At a guess, it's a British industrial of some kind - where was it taken?

DiveController Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Looks like it to me. Its not identical but we're looking at the offside. That sloping engine compartment must be fairly unusual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhu Varren Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 (edited) This is a Yorkshire Engine Company locomotive, works number YE2481 used by British Steel. If you look closely, next to the cab window is the number BSC 1. The first picture in this thread is of BSC 2 which is works number YE2480. This picture found on the internet when searching for the Yorkshire Engine Company. Edited December 24, 2019 by Dhu Varren 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
