Steam in Shropshire, 70000 - a photo on Flickriver

            Well it had to be done, Steam Locomotives would have been photographed by many back in the day in Monochrome (Black and White)
70000 Britannia steaming into Cosford Station 0n26th January 2023
Britannia was built at Crewe, completed on 2 January 1951. It was the first British Railways standard locomotive to be built and the first of 55 locomotives of the Britannia class. The locomotive was named at a ceremony at Marylebone Station by the then Minister for Transport Alfred Barnes on 30 January 1951.

The locomotive pulled the funeral train of King George VI[5] from King's Lynn, Norfolk to London following his death in February 1952
