A4 Pacific no 60019 Bittern at Hawick station with the RCTS Waverley rail tour on 12 November 1966. The special was on its way from York to Edinburgh via Newcastle and Carlisle, returning home via the ECML. Presumably the A4 had uncoupled at Hawick to take water from the column on the up platform - by that date regular steam working had ceased so the column on the down platform may well have been out of use.
