23rd April 2020 marked the end of the main line career of 60009 'Union of South Africa'. However, the A4 will spend some time on preserved railways before its full retirement. John Cameron (on the left) is photographed at Aberdeen in front of his loco, about to return to Edinburgh with 'The Bon Accord' on 13th April 1974. Thanks for the memories ...
