Great photos, though I must say she's certainly looking rough these days with all that grime and rust. Considering she was the "poster child" for the D&S not too long ago, appearing on all their merch and advertising, it's a bit of a shock. I still remember the days when you could tell that the K-series engines had aluminum paint on the smokeboxes and they weren't just big black behemoths. I guess seeing the 315 alongside the D&S and C&TS locos has served as quite a contrast.
