Caption
Locomotive repairs, Doncaster, South Yorkshire, 1959. Doncaster has a great tradition of locomotive building. During the Industrial Revolution, the Great Northern Locomotive and Carriage works was built there, adjacent to the existing station. Some famous locomotives were built in Doncaster, including the Mallard and the Flying Scotsman, which are probably the most well known two. In the photograph, locos are being stripped, serviced and repaired.
