Nice photos, but I haven't a clue what the answers are.

Before you can transfer ackers you'll need to open a bank account because they are transferred from account to account.

I see you started a new quiz, any chance you could let me know if I'm close on this one, please.

Sorry about that. I was waiting to see if anyone else had a go.

Clue -- could I have taken that photo from that location in 1980 ?

Sorry it did come through Accrington last year, according to my source but my guess 1970?

Re: Photo Quiz-001

I'd say 2002. She's a Royal Train, Princess Coronation Class locomotive LMS No. 6233. Named Duchess of Sutherland and she was built in 1938.

You and Doug are of course correct about the Duchess.

It was taken on a wet Saturday in May last year from the top of the Arndale Car Stack which I think was built about 1989.
