The Alan Gibson Files: Another mystery steam loco

Mystery steam loco

Another mystery loco. I'm not even sure what sort it is!

Last weeks, was apparenlty taken at Hockley Heath steam rally, late 1960s - is this one? It would make sense. 

Anyway, over to you. Thanks in advance.

    Bressingham is my guess. Looks like Alan Bloom on footplate?

    Alan Bloom driving it at Bressingham is my guess….

  3. I have no idea, but Google Lens (stunning bit of software by the way) suggests it's a Hudswell Clark well tank. Appears to be one at Statfold, maybe it's that?

  4. It is definitely Alan on Bronllwyd at Bressingham.

  5. I hadn't guessed Bressingham - it's a long way from Alan's patch. Thanks
