Former railway resident 20056 is seen leaving the railway for the final time. This loco has had an exciting life following withdrawl by BR. Following arrival at Brechin it spent time hauling construction trains at the Channel Tunnel project. Following it's return it ran on the railway for a period before being part of a swap deal which brought 26035 to the railway. Since then it has appeared in the railway press back in industrial use - most recently in Corus colours working at a rail mill in Scunthorpe. A productive after life! |
