92200 1964-08-15 York Poppleton Ings Yard
The freight yard at Poppleton Ings, just north of York was not frequently photographed. The main photographic attractions of York Station and MPD understandably tended to steal the limelight. On a somewhat gloomy day in August 1964, BR Riddles 'Standard 9F' 2-10-0 No. 92200 gets underway with a northbound mixed freight. It was built at Swindon in November 1958 and had a life of not quite seven years being withdrawn in October 1965.
