Diesels too |
| Description: |
Though these two are remarkable in that they represent two of the four FP 7s owned by Reading, and a unit that was a minority among the hordes of F 7s produced. Readings paint scheme is really attractive on this pair. For the steam fans, T 1 2124, a veteran of the well known Rambles, sits behind. |
