92233 1963-10 Matlock

Southbound freight, Presumably back on Home Ground here at Matlock in October of 1963 Standard 9 F 92233 had spent a period during the previous Summer of 1962 working the Somerset and Dorset line from Bath Depot in company with sister engine 92245 , both of which had joined a number of earlier members of that class class working long distance holiday passenger duties from Bath to and from the South coast . The Standards performed well on the demanding route across the Mendips during some three years from 1960 to 1963 following the initial series of trials with the Western Region's 92204 which had initially been tested in late March of 1960. Noteable 9F's working over the Somerset and Dorset metals during that period had included 92000 herself together with 92220 Evening Star
