The BR Standard Class 3 2-6-0s

There were just 20 of these mixed traffic engines, designed by Robert Riddles and built at Swindon works in 1954. Operating mainly in north east England and in Scotland, they had all been withdrawn by 1967 and none were preserved. John Dyer’s photos show No. 77001 outside Mirfield sheds on 12/8/62, No. 77013 at York MPD on 26/7/60 and No. 77015 at Glasgow Corkerhill sheds on 4/8/60.
