tim's steamy snaps - page 2

Tim took these pictures on his Brownie 127 around the early 1960s - possibly as early as 1959, perhaps as late as '64 or '65. He's not sure - it was a long time ago!. Living in the West Riding of Yorkshire at the time, the photos were taken on spotting trips to places such as York, Leeds, Bradford, Manchester and even Crewe. But other than the obvious ones, I'm not certain when and where they were taken. If anyone out there can help me, especially with locations, I'd be very grateful. Please use the feedback form if you can help.
