UK - preserved K1 62005 takes water

Post by John Ashworth »

Here are four pictures of preserved K1 62005 during a watering stop at Crewe a couple of days ago:

For FOTR crews the second one looks familiar - taking water from a hosepipe connected to the bottom of the tender, as there is a live wire above the tender, while the crew stand around aimlessly and chat. The fourth one shows clearly the overhead wire warning symbol on the back of the tender
