European Railroad Discussion > A Collection of Castles from Mr. BrownDate: 05/23/21 13:55 A Collection of Castles from Mr. Brown Author: gbmott The greatest number of A. E. Brown negatives were of the Great Western, particularly around Newbury. This week's installment is of Castles. As always, corrections are very welcome. I am particularly leery of photos that are identified only by date and month, as are two of these. Those with a specific day seem more reliable.
1. BR 5007 Rougemont Castle - Newbury Race Course 5-5-56 2. BR 5047 Earl of Dartmouth - Newbury 5-56 3. BR 5072 Hurricane - Newbury 3-56 Gordon Edited 2 time(s). Last edit at 05/23/21 14:05 by gbmott. Date: 05/24/21 07:12 Re: A Collection of Castles from Mr. Brown Author: 86235 Nice set

I realise this was to provide clearance for the inside cylinders but I just can't get used to that rather unique look. But they were reliable performers.
