Just over sixty three years ago, I hitchhiked to just north of Clay Cross and photographed this typical Midland 'small engine'.
'MR 4F 0-6-0 No 43967 heads a short freight north from Clay Cross on 31 May 1963.'

This Midland Fowler 4F was built by Armstrong Whitworth in January 1922. It spent most of its BR life at Midland main line sheds, and the time of my photo was based at Hasland (18C). It ended its life at Buxton (9L) on 28 September 1965 and was scrapped in December 1965.

Did Trump Promise "No Wars" If Elected?
Of course he did. Here's the record. And he — and congressional Republicans who encouraged and enabled his war in Iran — should be held to account for it.
