private NSW 2-8-2T with a coal train

J & A Brown's 2-8-2T number 10, Richmond Main is crossing the four track NSW Hamilton to Maitland main line with a load for Hexham wharves. The J & A Brown coal line known as the Richmond Vale Railway was the first railway at this location -- the NSWGR rails reached the area later. The engines were built new for the J & A Brown company between 1908 and 1911 by Kitson of Leeds – with an air of the Great Central about them - three entered service on the RVR. No date.
