  Great photo, the engine is an 0-6-0, the typical British-style goods engine for many years.

  Patrick Castelli Any input on the sign? Was that gradient, maybe?

• Angela Orlando said:

  Does look like a very cold day from the billows of smoke... neat old B&W!!! Thanks for sharing... 1960 was a good year!!! This is the date that Pear Harbor was bombed back in 1941 which was a horrible day in history!!!
