Notes;
Here are the three pictures of 58100 'The Lickey Banker'. I took the pictures either the last week of July or the first in August of 1955, that was when one had to take one's holidays where I worked. As you likely know, 58100 was withdrawn in May 1956 and scrapped the following year at Derby. All three pictures were taken at Blackwell at the top of the Lickey incline. Big Bertha having assisted what is probably the 10-something express from Bristol to Newcastle by the time it reached Blackwell it would probably be around just after noon. The picture with the locomotive on its own indicates that it was reversing back to Bromsgrove. The small shunting signal to the left of the buffer beam shows that it is moving from the up to the down track. Just as a matter of interest, the locomotive hauling the train was 45602 'British Honduras'.
