USA S100 switcher more details

Asked by some of our American readers
for more details of the S100 dock tank
at Oxenhope. I hope these help
 
 
They were of course manufactured to run
on the European system after D Day and
anticipating the collapse of French rail
or destruction of same by retreating
German forces. However prior to
going to Europe they were used
extensively hers in the UK

 
Here the Vulcan Iron Works plate
 
 
It now awaits it's turn in workshops for overhaul

 
Fortunately for us KWVR policy is to display
engines awaiting over haul in good cosmetic
condition

 
As can be seen the S100 still looks pretty good
 
See more on
 
Better still pay a visit and see for yourself
