New Delhi India 10th June 1981 - a photo on Flickriver

New Delhi India 10th June 1981

            Broad gauge 2-8-2 WG8043, built 1959 at Chittaranjan Locomotive Works West Bengal, with a mixed goods passes the Indian Railway Museum.

In the museum is Beyer Peacock N Class Beyer-Garratts 4-8-0+0-8-4 N Class 815 (built Manchester 1930). Weighing 235 tons, these 4-cylinder articulated broad-gauge steam locomotives were used to haul heavy mineral & iron ore traffic on the Bengal Nagpur Railway (BNR) & later on the South Eastern Railway.

Unfortunately my colour slide has not fared well over the last 43 years and is covered in blue spots!
