I grew up in Baldock Hertfordshire in the sixties. Our garden overlooked the station and I watched the trains most days.

Forty years on I would like to know what it was that I saw. A large tank engine did some occasional shunting in the yard. What type was that? Does any one have any photos of Baldock of that time?

One of my friends assured me that he had seen a Gresley A1 pulling the Flying Scotsman through Baldock when there was problems on the main line north of Hitchin.

Like many ten year olds he was not always a reliable witness.
