Strand Road Exchange Sidings

'Courageous' almost looks like it has been posed as it runs round its passenger train in the Exchange Sidings at Preston Docks on 22nd September 2019. She has been superbly restored in the guise of one of seven Bagnall 0-6-0STs that operated the 26 miles of dock tracks in the 1950s and 1960s. I think this is one of the best looking steam locos in the current RSR fleet and the Preston Dock accessories of spark arrestor and tank ladder add to its charms.
