Buchanan Street

A2 Pacific 60532 'Blue Peter' at Glasgow Buchanan St on 17th June 1966. The buffer beam reflects the locomotive’s long-standing association with Dundee Tay Bridge, but 61B on the smokebox affirms the recent move to Aberdeen’s Ferryhill, which made regular use of the engine on the 1.30 pm to Glasgow and 11.30 pm return during the final few months of steam haulage on the route.
