Cove Bay

V2 2-6-2 60844 is seen passing Nigg Bay, on its way away from Aberdeen, with a haul of mineral empties. The locomotive sounded overdue for attention from the fitter at its home shed (Dundee Tay Bridge), with a very uneven 3-cylinder exhaust. Visual evidence can be seen from the smoke pattern.
