30742 Charters
Friday 3rd September 2021
Fresh from overhaul LNER Y1 No. 59 (LNER No. 59 / BR No. 68153 / Departmental No. 54), was built by Sentinel in Shrewsbury in 1933 (Works No. 8837) featured with a variety of freight stock on the Middleton Railway, alongside soon to be withdrawn from traffic LNER Y7 1310 (North Eastern Railway Gateshead Work, 1891).
We see the locomotives working along the Balm Road branch, crossing Tulip Street and Moor Road, along with working the the main line from Moor Road passing under the M621 towards Park Halt, including the Y1 being shunted down the Dartmouth Branch.
The Middleton Railway run steam and diesel hauled trains through the Hunslet area of Leeds, an area were so many industrial steam locomotives where built.
At the end of the video we see 68153 shunting fresh from overhaul Hawthorn Leslie & Company Works Number 3860 Swanscombe No. 6, which was due its own debut in the gala weekend on the days after the charter.
