Peterborough Nene Valley Station
Polish 0-8-0T locomotive TKp-5485 is attended to by its driver before departing westwards to Wansford. He is lubricating the engine's air brake pump, to ensure a good supply of air for the brakes. (No air, you can't release the brakes!). The locomotive is one of many built for Polish industrial railways in the 1950's, and was in use on the railway's 'Polish Gala Day'.
