National Railway Museum York

Ancient and relatively modern. Prototype English Electric Type 3 D6700, which has now passed its 50th birthday, poses in a temporary annex building at the NRM York. Buffered up to the Class 37 is a replica Liverpool and Manchester Railway coach, the original of which would now be around 180 years old, and they make an interesting comparison. A link between these two vehicles is that the L&M Rly passed through Earlestown where D6700 was built at EE's Vulcan Foundry.
