30837, Eastleigh MPD, 16th January 1966
From the Geoff Plumb Collection of original slides. SR Maunsell S15 Class 4-6-0 No. 30837 has been specially bulled-up to work the LCGB "S15 Commemorative Railtour" and is seen here during servicing at Eastleigh shed, surrounded by the detritus that typified the steam environment. This tour ran twice due to high demand on Sundays 9th and 16th January 1966, the "repeat" tour running first! However, I think this is taken during the second tour on 16th January.
