47616 1960s Widnes

Wonder what happened here? Local '3F' 0-6-0T No. 47616 has settled nicely into the 4-foot although the 16T mineral wagon in front of it is still on the track. The lack of trackwork behind the Jinty and the wagon standing on non shiny point blades would suggest the engine has run off the catch points. There appears to be a further set on the nearest track, by the drivers right arm. Unable to locate a suitable track diagram to confirm.

Kenneth Aaron adds 'Looks like Anne Street crossing box on the left. The two overbridges are probably the LNWR avoider followed by the CLC Widnes loop line'
