It's interesting to see the original smokebox handrails on the 9F. I thought BR had removed them and replaced them with semi-circular cut-out handholds following an accident in which the original handrail locating brackets impaired the driver's vision due to the sun's glare and obscuring a red signal. I thought BR ordered all handrails to be replaced by handholds. It's Good to see one of Dai's little darling enjoying her second life, looking as spick and span as when she rolled out of Crewe in June 57. Thanks for an excellent presentation.
