    Before the advent of the famous Hudson type, Pacifics of the high-stepping K-3 class headed the premier trains of the New York Central's passenger fleet, including the Twentieth Century Limited, and were featured in this role on calendars issued by the railroad. No. 4669, originally 3269, was a member of class K-3q delivered in 1923 by American Locomotive Company's Brooks Works. She was retired and scrapped in 1952. She appears here in the terminal at Rensselaer, New York in 1950 in this image provided by Wayne Koch.

    Jackie Milburn locomotive pulls into Northumberland.
    A locomotive named after local football legend Jackie Milburn is making a special visit to Northumberland.
    The recently resorted Jackie Milburn steam locomotive is pulling into the annual Northumberland Miners' Picnic at Woodhorn, Ashington, this weekend.
    Originally named the Ashington No.5, it was used from 1939 to 1969 at Ashington Coal Company.
    It has taken four years and 4678 hours of work to restore it to its former glory.
    The restoration was made possible due to public donations of more than £38,000 and £100,000 in grants and funds.
    'Coming home'
    Volunteers from the North Tyneside Steam Railway Association and staff at Tyne & Wear Archive and Museums completed the restoration.
    Afterwards, it was officially renamed Jackie Milburn in honour of the local footballing legend.
    He worked at Ashington Colliery as a fitter before going on to play for Newcastle United and England.
    Jackie Milburn's son, Jack Milburn, said: "It's absolutely brilliant, the hours that everybody has put in is fantastic. Over 4,600 hours just to get it right, it's absolutely fabulous.
    "It's an honour, it started work just a year before he did at the pit. It was 1939 when the train first started and he came along at just 16 years old in 1940 when he first started working here.
    "The chances are they've passed each other many many times I would think."
