62349 1950s Blackhill station
NER D20, 4-4-0 No 62349 in the 1950s at Blackhill station, train has just come up the Branch from Swalwell, loco was allocated to Blaydon in the mid 50's for a short period May 1954 to July 1955. The two snow ploughs must be stored for use from Consett shed, perhaps room was tight there however there was usually lots of storage space in Consett ‘High’ and ‘Low’ yards. I love the two 'urchins' with their plimsoles!
