Ashington pits

Ashington - once the largest pit village in the world, home to a large number of pits and railways. It was home to our own Peckett A5, seen here just after delivery in 1939. It was also home albeit temporarily to two Yank Tanks 1413 and 1991, details of both can be seen on the photos themselves.
