Summary

Description
English: 'Jubilee' Class 4-6-0 'Leander' at Normanton.
The celebrated preserved 'Jubilee', No. 45690, in a disreputable state towards the end of its working life, on a Down Sheffield - Leeds local train leaving Normanton. This was then still a major junction, where the main ex-Midland Sheffield - Leeds line joined with the ex-Lancashire & Yorkshire main line from Manchester via the Calder Valley and Wakefield, also the ex-North Eastern main line to York via Church Fenton. Until the 'Beeching Revolution' and the later disappearance of the Coal Industry, Normanton was a train-watcher's paradise but in 2010 the scene is totally different, the residual Normanton Station being virtually on a backwater.
