Thank you Bob, a lovely photo and appliance.These were fast machines but stopping them repeatedly fast was another matter.Brings back memories as I was there in 1968.The Commer WRT in the background was annotated ST (salvage tender) on the turnout indicators around the stn.In reality this was the 2nd Wrt.The PE crew jumped on this for a rural shout together with the Wrl.The PE was then manned if required by Off duty wt/ret and ret personnel.
