1958/xx/xx, 5. From the Geoff Plumb collection of original slides. Drummond North British Railway "Pug" Class G 0-4-0ST, LNER and BR Class Y9, No. 68123 is paired with an ancient wooden tender for its coal supplies. It is one of the shed pilots at Dundee MPD during the summer of 1958. 35 engines of this class were built between 1882 and 1899, this particular engine at Cowlairs in August 1899 and fortunately, No. 68095 survives in preservation. 68123 was withdrawn and scrapped at Cowlairs in August 1960. Photographer unknown.
