Notes:
(1) 42095 or 42096 was
banking engine from Oxenholme to Grayrigg & 42232 was banking engine from Tebay
to Shap
(2) Originally uploaded as 42096, Rob Tibbets questions the identity of the
Grayrigg banking engine - he has it recorded as 42095 (according to his old 1965
shed book,
42095 was allocated to 12E Tebay and 42096 to 1C Watford Junction. That in
itself is not proof that he is correct, but does suggest so?)
