61671 1950s Cambridge

61671 1950s Cambridge

Looking in its usual pristine condition as befitting Cambridge's "Royal" engine, used on Royal Trains to and from Kings Cross when members of the Royal family were visiting Sandringham.

61671 Royal Sovereign was rebuilt as a 2-cylinder B2 in 1945, and was used on two sets of comparative tests against original 3-cylinder B17s and as a result nine more B17s were rebuilt as B2s.
