60112 1963-10-17 Retford
Still carrying its 34F Grantham shed code despite being officially allocated to Doncaster since September 8th 1963, A3 pacific No 60112 'St Simon' has been reduced to menial work. It will probably never again carry a 36A plate as it was re-allocated to New England at the end of October for its last year of service. The short class H through freight includes a GNR tender used for slurry, the sludge dump for emptying these was at Ranskill, between Retford & Doncaster.
