64290 1953-06 Oxspring Tunnel
Oxpring Tunnel in South Yorkshire is on the the old Wath branch of the former 1500DC Woodhead system. In June 1953, an ex-GCR Robinson '9J' (a.k.a "Pom-Pom") LNER 'J11/5' No. 64290 emerges from the gloom under the catenary with a freight. It was built at Gorton in 1901 and withdrawn in May 1958.
