team Days Index a€ 2002 Trains of Thought The South Leicestershire Railway - Stanley Jenkins takes us over the South Leicestershire line from Leicester (London Road) to Nuneaton (Trent Valley) which traversed Midland Railway metals from Leicester to Wigston and then L&NWR track to Nuneaton, and he provides interesting facts on the stations, traffic, and motive power used over the route. Winter in the North-East in the 1960s - In our usual annual seasonal photo-feature depicting winter conditions on Britain's railways in the days of steam, this year Colin Ryder, a signalman at Ferryhill, County Durham, in the 1960s, adds his own memories of those cold days in the north-east, when he was on duty, to the selection of wintry scenes, which also includes the industrial scene in that part of Britain. The Lymington Branch - Jeffery Grayer recalls a visit to the Southern Region's Brockenhurst to Lymington branch just prior to steam traction ended over the line, and relates some of the interesting history of the line, and some of the line's proposals that did not materialise. Tales of 'The Falmouth' - TrevorA. Tremethick remembers a train journey along the Falmouth branch to Truro which he took as a young lad in 1959, and vividly describes his trip and the stations, viaducts, tunnels and scenery witnessed throughout the journey. Railways around Dunfermline - Peter Marshall and David Anderson take a look at the railway system around the Fife-shire town of Dunfermline in Scotland, the passenger and freight services working in the area in the days of steam, and the Charleston branch, the early waggonways, and the many coalfields worked by NCB locomotives. Tail Lamp a€" Readers' Letters Cover: As in previous years, the January issue of Steam Days magazine includes a seasonal photo-feature, this year covering the north-east of England where not only BR steam lasted well into 1967, but industrial steam continued on beyond that date. With snow covering the ground at the National Coal Board premises of Philadelphia, outside the shed stands NCB 0-6-2T No 52. This locomotive was built in 1899 for the Taff Vale Railway as their No 85, and is now to be found on the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway. In the background is 0-6-2T No 29, built by Kitson's in 1904, preparing for its next duty. This locomotive is also preserved, and can be seen on the North York Moors Railway.

n a wintry 2 January 1958, a Sunderland (South Dock)-based 'A8' 4-6-2T, No 69855, passes Ford Sidings with the 1.54pm Hylton to Sunderland train. The 'A8' was a highly-successful Gresley rebuild of Raven's 4-4-4T design of 1913, and a familiar sight on local passenger workings around the region until diesel multiple-units made them surplus to requirements. All fourteen of South Dock's allocation went for scrap in 1960 a€ the year the 'A8' class became extinct
