National Seaside Day Steam up. Visiting locos 37418 "East Lancashire Railway" and electro diesel 73006 from Hall Road or Birkenhead TMD. Also ex Southport Corporation Leyland Titan GFY 406. Retail outlets and car parks stand on this site now. Steamport was the former Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway locomotive shed on Derby Road, Southport. Now relocated to the Ribble Steam Railway at Preston. During a previous flickr incarnation somebody told me the traction engine details, but I have since lost them, sorry.
Former London Transport Leyland RTW467 seen at Dungeness during the New Romney running day on 6 September 2015. The famous narrow gauge Romney, Hythe & Dymchurch Railway can be seen in the background.
First introduced in 1949, the 500 RTW class buses were different in being 8'0" in width as opposed to the LT norm of 7", although from the RM class onward, 8'0" did become the norm.
RTW467 was the last to run in revenue service on 14 May 1966, though a considerable number survived as training buses until early 1970, while others found a new life in Sri Lanka.
