Eastfield Shed

With steam allocations in Scotland dwindling rapidly by the mid nineteen sixties, Cowlairs works began to see fairly frequent visitors from south of the border to make use of the spare capacity. One such was green-liveried Standard 5 73095, seen here at Eastfield. Despite the recent works visit, the smokebox number plate was missing, though this would no doubt be rectified before the loco went back south.
