'Big Jim' USATC S 160 arives Oxenhope KWVR

Powering up the valley with a long train is no
problem for this engine
 
 
Both wartime engines were running over the
steam spectacular
 
 
Excellent weekend well done KWVR
 
 
Judging by their power it is no wonder they were
used for so long after WW2

 
They were shipped over to Europe as the armies
moved forwards

 
I believe Big Jim here was repatriated from Sweeden
So they travelled well also. The S160 at Cheddleton was
repatriated from China
