Great Central Railway Loughborough Leicestershire 21st April 2018

            Although in outward appearance the post-war Hawksworth Modified Hall 4-6-0s looked almost the same as the Collett originals nearly everything about them was new.  The use of plate frames throughout was a major change for Swindon and the most obvious difference to the eye was the plate framed structure of the front bogie.

Seen from the inspection pit (I had just been checking the ashpan) Modified Hall 6990 Witherslack Hall displays the plate frame bogie particularly well.
