These were a common sight during this period, these engines having the necessary traction to move the heavy loads for which they were designed. Information from J Thickitt: View north-westwards from Grimesthorpe shed-yard towards the Midland Main Line. The background signal box was the nearest to the camera of the two boxes shown in s15056. Reminiscences by a former Grimesthorpe engine driver who was familiar with this class considered the Crab class to be good all round engines . |
