View north from the footbridge at Newmachar station on 15 August 1960 as B1 4-6-0 no 61352 waits at the platform with empty stock on its way to Ellon for storage on the stub of the Boddam branch. The train is about to cross an Aberdeen bound DMU. [Additional information from notes taken by JR - one of the group sitting on the left.] The DMU is on a once a day run to Aberdeen for light maintenance and re-fuelling. [With thanks to DS and BJ.]
