2751 1932c Saltersford crossing

2751 1932c Saltersford crossing

LNER A3 Pacific No 2751 Humorist approaches Grantham at Saltersford crossing with a down Class D partially fitted Express Freight before being fitted with a double chimney, probably dates from after May 1932 or later as there's no sigh of Saltersford box's tall signals.

Behind the two cattle vans (a brand new LMS one and a SR vehicle) are a number of pre-grouping fish vans including two NBR 6 wheeled vehicles, even the low sided open may be a fish truck, so I suspect the first part of the load is fitted fish empties followed by sheeted merchandise wagons at the rear.
