60117 1949c Little Ponton

Tony Roberts says "Might I suggest that the as yet unnamed, "Bois Roussel" is on a running in path, five on the drawbar and its very clean condition, even the boiler band lining visible, leads to my thought Additionally, the loco Class is painted (Yellow) on the buffer beam at the side of the right buffer stock, home depot yet to be added by the depot(?) painter near the left buffer".

Roman Schmidt solves the problem "The location is the three track section of the ECML about three miles south of Grantham and approaching Great Ponton. 60117 was named July 1950 and withdrawn June 1965. "

Whilst agreeing with R. Schmidt regarding location, a more accurate description of the exact location would be Little Ponton. I believe this was the only overbridge between Grantham & Great Ponton
