  Holyhead station on Anglesey? The loco has visited Holyhead, which is also a terminus and has a clock tower outside not disimmilar to the one in your photo!

  I should have investigated that date on the photo more! The loco was hauling the Yorkshire Coronation that day to Scarborogh where that photo was taken. I should have known.....I have walked past that clock tower a million times!!

  Something's wrong then - I'll check, but am pretty sure the date on my camera was right...and it definitely isn't Chesterfield
