Horbury and Ossett

Trip working 9K47 leaves Healey Mills yard on a misty morning in 1979 behind 08098 and heads for Wakefield Wagon shops with wagons for repair. This diagram had originated in steam days and served various locations in the Healey Mills and Wakefield area. Picture taken from the former cattle dock, by then the only surviving remnant of the closed station. With thanks to Wyn Garnett, former Healey Mills shunter, who provided local information and spotted a green repair card on the fourth wagon solebar. See image 26508.
