RD3309. DSB 978 at Copenhagen. September,1970.

            1970/09.RD3309.  The Railway Enthusiasts' Club based in Farnborough, Hampshire, ran a tour of Denmark between the 19th and 26th September, 1970 and the 'REC' headboard can just be seen adorning the front of Danish State Railways 'E' class compound Pacific 978.  Built by Frichs in 1943, the loco is shown here on a railtour based on Copenhagen.   

The first batch of the ‘E’ class were bought from the Swedish Railways in 1936 with a further 25 locos being built for the DSB between 1943 and 1950.  Some of them had double chimneys and  No. 978 is one of them.   

The photograph, from the Adrian Jarvis collection,  is by E.A.S.Cotton and thanks are due to Steen Larsen, Nick Quinn, Kurt Möller, Niels Munch and Helmut Dahlhaus for help in identifying both the locomotive and the location.
