4717 in the sun

Post by John Ashworth »

Smartly turned out 4717 takes a break by the carriage sidings (near the museum) on a sunny day.

Sheltham were the main stakeholder in the original Rift Valley Railways, until they were totally discredited and RVR was taken over by other interests.

4717 seems to be the regular shunt loco for the carriage sidings. Same loco in more or less the same location on 23rd March 2012.
