Re: Borough Gardens
Careful redtoon 52J was also used on the solebars of DMUs from South Gosforth car sheds. I can confirm that is true because i tried to pinch one in Alnwick during my misspent youth.
Hi interested in the area served by 52D. also researching colliery wagonways from same area.

Re: Borough Gardens
I didnt bid but it looked the part, went for just under £75 + p&p, you may be right of course as I have never seen one of these on offer. Got my 52A but I know where that came from.
