Fort William
Stanier Black 5 Class 4-6-0 no. 45212, named after Sir William Stanier (1876-1965), at Fort William station waiting to depart with the 12.50 service of 'The Jacobite' to Mallaig, on Thursday, 8th September 2022. This locomotive, originally no. 5212, was constructed by the firm of Armstrong Whitworth at Newcastle-upon-Tyne in 1935. The 4 was added by British Railways at Nationalisation in 1948 and the locomotive saw a further 20 years in regular service before being withdrawn in 1968. Going on the Jacobite had been on my bucket list since seemingly time began!
