Wednesday 21/5/58 RF 1421 Having now passed Sid, the above train continues it’s westwards journey and is about to enter Tutshill (for Beachley) Halt. Another excellent shot. Wednesday 21/5/58 RR1448 Off of 81B shed, ‘out of steam’ in the shed yard at Canton in ex works condition and in lined green livery. The locomotive was probably in the process of making the return journey to the London area after overhaul at either Caerphilly or Barry Works. Saturday 28/12/57 RF1448 As above but with No.7242 from Cathays Shed alongside. No.1448 was withdrawn in June 1960 which points to this being the last major works visit for the engine, No.7242 lasted a bit longer, being withdrawn in June, 1964. Saturday 28/12/57 RF1453*Another of the Western Region engines that was allocated to 71G and sporting the wooden smokebox numberplate that the engine carried for a while, shunting carriage stock at Weymouth.

No.2808 which is fitted with outside steam pipes, was withdrawn in the following August and No.3642 was withdrawn in April, 1965. Appears to be a cold winter’s day with some snow on the ground. Nice shot. Thursday 15/1/59 LF2813 An 87B engine, plodding along the down main line near Marshfield with a westbound Class H mineral train. No.2813 was withdrawn in October, 1960. c.1953 LF2813 By now allocated to 86J, at the head of an up Class H freight at Tuffley Junction. With safety valves just simmering and the tender piled high with coal. Nice shot. Wednesday 12/8/59 LF2834 An 84C engine, on the down relief line near Marshfield with a westbound Class F freight which appears to be comprised entirely of livestock wagons. No.2834 was withdrawn in December, 1962. Good exhaust and shadows. Sunday 18/10/53 LF2839 Off of 86A has just cleared Newport Tunnel and is seen on the down main line at Gaer Junction with a westbound Class H freight of steel slabs. Nice shot of No.2839 which was withdrawn in July, 1964. Wednesday 11/3/59 LF2844*An excellent shot of this 87E engine passing through Cardiff General Station on the down relief line, working hard to keep a westbound Class D train of vans on the move on a cold winter’s day, some snow on the ground.

Nice, unusual shot. Thursday 21/4/55 RF2854 This Oxley engine is seen near Marshfield, heading away from the photographer and on towards Cardiff on the down relief line with a westbound freight. It is a cold winter’s day with snow on the ground and the engine crew have unfurled the cab tarpaulin to try and keep the elements out. No.2854 was withdrawn in October, 1963. c.1953 RR 2862 This long term 86E engine has just crossed Brunel’s bridge across the River Wye at Chepstow and is climbing towards Lydney with an eastbound Class H mineral train. No.2862 was withdrawn in May, 1964. Nice shot. Saturday 18/10/58 LF2866*Another Severn Tunnel Junction engine, this is the classic study of a former GWR heavy freight engine hard at work. The locomotive is passing the woods between St.Fagans and Ely with an eastbound Class H freight and even though the track here is level No.2866 seems to be putting in quite a bit of effort to keep the train on the move. Superb. c.1956 LF 2866 Still allocated to 86E, seen just to the west of St.Fagans at the head of a down Class F freight. No.2866 was withdrawn in March, 1963.

No.3612 was withdrawn in October, 1964 and would later pass into preservation. Nice shot of the engine framed by a portal of the viaduct. Tuesday 10/4/56 RR3612 At Penygraig Station on a damp, miserable day with a passenger train from Llantrisant. Judging by the amount of smoke it looks as if the blower ‘hard on’. Superb. Saturday 15/2/58 RF3612 Details as the previous shot though this time viewed from the footbridge. This passenger service was to cease in four months time. Saturday 15/2/58 RR (from above)3617*A long term Llantrisant engine, crossing the road at Cowbridge Road Crossing whilst employed as banker to the X2 11.0am Llantrisant - Coke Ovens freight which had Abercynon’s No.5618 at it’s head. No.3617 was withdrawn in September, 1964. Lovely shot with youngsters watching the train go by. Saturday 3/5/58 L/Broadside3634 Off of 86A, seen near Dowlais Top about to cross over the former L & NWR line, bunker first with a two coach Newport - Brecon stopping passenger train amid typical Valleys scenery.

the 11.15am Newport - Brecon stopping passenger train. Saturday 2/5/59 RF3638 Slightly different view to the above, the guard has now prepared the 11.15am Newport - Brecon stopping passenger train for departure from Talyllyn Junction Station and is walking back to his compartment. The sign outside the Refreshment Room indicates that ‘Rhymney Beers’ were available on the premises. No.3638 was withdrawn in January, 1961. Superb. Saturday 2/5/59 RF3642 Allocated to 87F at this time and in ex works condition, employed on pilot duties at Cardiff General Station. The engine had probably received an overhaul at either Barry, Caerphilly or Swindon Works and was working it’s way back to it’s home depot at Llanelly when seconded by Canton Shed for pilot duties. Perhaps not such a good choice of duty as after overhaul all controls would be stiff to operate making for difficult handling during delicate shunting operations. An excellent shot on a cold and miserable looking day which saw some snow on the ground. No.3642 was withdrawn in April, 1965 off of 87A. Thursday 15/1/59 R/Broadside3644 Off of Llantrisant Shed and minus it’s smokebox numberplate, hurries along the main line between St.Fagans and St.Georges with the return Z1 Class K freight which was an ‘as ordered by control’ duty. In the left background is the former Barry Railway Signalbox at Tynycaeau Junction. No.3644 was withdrawn in June, 1965 off of Radyr Shed. Saturday 20/3/54 RF3644 Now in a cleaner condition and with it’s smokebox numberplate reinstated, entering Cardiff General Station on the down relief line with a westbound Class K freight, probably Llantrisant’s Z1 duty but definite identification is difficult as the target is placed on the lamp iron to the rear of the toolbox and is viewed from an acute angle. The fourth vehicle in the train is a gunpowder van, wet day and P.W. gang at work to right. Nice shot. Tuesday 5/11/57 RF3652*Displaying an 86F Tondu shed plate, approaches Park Junction with the four coach 2.10pm Newport (High St.) - Brynmawr stopping passenger train. No.3652 was withdrawn off of 87A in October, 1963. Thursday 6/5/54 LF3662*A superb head on shot of this 86A locomotive entering Torpantau Halt with the 12.15pm Brecon - Newport stopping passenger train as seen from the 11.15am Newport - Brecon stopping passenger train being hauled by No.3638.

Saturday 29/5/54 LF3680 A head on view of the locomotive at Cwmdu Station with the above Special, another tank engine is just visible in the left background. Saturday 29/5/54 FF3685*A splendid study of this long term Pontypool Road engine in near ex works condition departing from Pontllanfraith (Low Level) Station with the 3.50pm Pontypool Road - Neath stopping passenger train. No.3685 was withdrawn off of 86G in April, 1964. Wednesday 3/10/56 LF3691 Off of 86A and in clean condition, at Park Junction with the three coach 12.15pm Brecon - Newport stopping passenger train. No.3691 was withdrawn in April, 1965. Wednesday 11/3/59 LF3708*An 86G engine displaying express headlamps, draws a transfer freight out of Northern Sidings, Pontypool Road.

DIESEL MULTIPLE UNITS - WESTERN REGION (SD SERIES). The DMU negatives are recognised by negative number, the number that appears to the left of the description. In the past, Sid Rickard had mixed these negatives up but it has been decided to put these negatives into chronological order, followed by the original negative number in brackets. This is to enable a better view of Sid’s sightings on a particular day to be formed if used in conjunction with all the other negative series. The majority of the SD Series negatives are in 35mm form and they are listed in the order that they were taken, thus enabling workings to be discovered.
