A big thank you to Andrew Walker for allowing us to post this excellent photo showing the contrasting cab styles of Romaninan 56020 and Doncaster built 56069 at Toton in 1988. Capturing this stark contrast between the different builds was one of the main reasons we chose the grid. Thanks to all that have shown support to our project.
