The Malayan Railway

This is a very special picture. While grubby 564.20 on the right is on a humble trip working, the driver of immaculate 564.12 'Alor Gajah' prepares to pass over the token. It appears to be ex-works and even at this late stage of 4th December 1971 it is carrying the special 'Coronation' plates on its smoke deflector.  (PH)
