UK Steam :- A bit damaged & new LMS Black 5 photos

[neildimmer]

Hi All

I came across this photo amongst the ones from Tony Gillett, it is of Black
5 45401 which i believe was the first black 5 to be withdrawn after a
collision at Dallam MPD with Jubilee 45630 Swaziland, the photo is not very
good but for historical content i have added it.
Both locos Black 5 45401 & Jubilee 45630 Swaziland both looking pretty
banged up at Dallam mpd 6th August 1961

The damaged one is so wobbly that it almost looks like a toy, or a surreal impression of a locomotive!
