On a crisp, showery day in April 2015, visiting J72 0-6-0T 69023 takes on water at the North Weald yard of the Epping & Ongar Railway. The J72 class dates back to 1898, being built for the North Eastern Railway, but 69023 was actually built under British Railways auspices, in 1949. It and several sisters were painted in this smart green livery when employed as pilots at York and Newcastle stations.
