		I first met Fred Norman in about 1964, when I was a six year old, when he invited me on to the footplate of a rarely before seen Ivatt tank by the shunting bell and bufferstop at Swanage station.
		The photo was taken in September, 2001, when the Ivatt tank visited the Swanage Railway from the Mid-Hants Railway for the Swanage Railway's steam gala.
