Tight Squeeze!
Bulleid Light Pacific No.34105 "SWANAGE" turns the corner at the junction between the High Street & Station Road, New Alresford. The Locomotive and Tender (following on another lorry) had been purchased by volunteers at the Mid-Hants Railway and until 24 hours previously it had been languishing in a South Wales Scrapyard since withdrawal by British Railways in 1964.
