Exeter_46100_30.7.2017: British Railways’ No. 46100, the doyen of the former London, Midland & Scottish Railway’s “Royal Scot” class 4-6-0, pauses at Exeter to take on water. The locomotive was hauling one of the regular “Royal Duchy” trains on a 226 mile (362km) round trip from Taunton in Somerset, to Par, in Cornwall and return. Those with sharp eyes will notice that the number 6, on the cabside, is not “standard.” When the engine was repainted, no number 6 transfers were available, so a number 9 transfer was employed, inverted! roger.griffiths@hotmail.com
