Urie/Maunsell S15 class 4-6-0

All spruced up in the snow - Nº30837 on an LCGB rail tour, the "S15 Commemorative Rail Tour", on 9th January 1966. This ran from Waterloo to Bentley behind Nº30837, then down the Borden branch and back behind U Class Nº31639 followed by Bentley - Eastleigh - Eastleigh Works - Eastleigh - Fareham - Havant - Waterloo behind Nº30837 again. Note the six-wheel tender, which is like a Schools class tender and quite different from the eight wheel ones above. photograph by Ray Soper

Nº30837 now has a second LCGB "S15 Commemorative Rail Tour" to haul which, unlike the first, was not in the snowy midst of winter! This ran on 16th January 1966 from Waterloo to Bentley behind Nº30837, down the Borden Branch and back behind Nº31639, then Bentley to Alton behind Nº30837, Alton to Eastleigh double-headed by Nº30837 and Nº31639, to Eastleigh works behind USA Tank Nº30073 and finally back to Waterloo behind Nº30837 once more.
