Grass for a fire eh ? Be back in a moment, just ringing the BTP....

... the second loco must have been one of the earlier type of Bo-Bo Type 2's, with lots of small grille panels along the sides.

Looks like a late afternoon shot in the winter. The sun is in the west at left. Can't help with the date, though certainly before 1985 !

Sounds like Andy Williams! Just a pair of beastie rats on the beast. Superb stuff...
