A pair of class 20s with an MGR coal train from the Fife coalfield to Cockenzie PS passing Saughton Junction box in March 1972.  Unusually both locomotives are running 'smokebox first' - presumably there had been a failure and the replacement could not be turned for them to be coupled with the cabs facing outwards as was normal practice.
