Right, I'll get me anorak.

If memory serves you are correct but only 5 of the black 5's were given names and that wasn't one of them.

Don't forget your hi vis jacket you left it on the platform last time.

Seem to remember that there were about three Black 5s working out of Accy sheds, but none of 'em were namers amd none of 'em were 45378.

PS - if you see the stationmaster before me, could you tell him that if he finds a duffle bag with a tartan thermos flask, some half-eated corned beef butties and an Ian Allan combined volume, it's mine?

I think they have a Black 5 parked up at Carnforth at the moment

There is already a track layout of Accy Station on another thread. The first ordnance survey map of Accrington was 1846/7. There is a copy in Accy Library.
