LPPC DSL BW 0260 Just being given the road is a Southern Crompton Type 3 Class 33 number 6577 (later 33058) with an inter-regional Coal Concentration train, probably from Chessington to Brent on the LMR. The location is Kensington Olympia where all the regions, except the Scottish, met in some form or other. Although the signalling is firmly from the pre-war era, the modern world is represented not only by the Class 33, but also by a Class 08 350hp shunter acting as station pilot to shunt the milk terminal, and a Mark 3 Ford Cortina. Keywords: BR, Western, Class 33, Freight, Coal, Class 08, Milk, 6577, 33058
