But what class of loco is hidden behind 24107? A Class 50 maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjnewitt Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Nice. But what class of loco is hidden behind 24107? A Class 50 maybe? Looks like an 08 to me. Possibly 08620. Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andytrains Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Nice. But what class of loco is hidden behind 24107? A Class 50 maybe? The loco between 24107 and 08620, do you mean? It has round buffers, didn't the EE Type 50's all have oval ones? I may be wrong. More likely a Brush type 4. (Cl 47). The vertical handrail looks right and then there is the the end of the horizontal handrail going across the bottom of the window line and the bend in the front at the corner, that makes me think this. Again I could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'CHARD Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 Only just seen that, after many minutes of trying. And yes, it's a 47 - no doubt whatsoever about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Initially I thought the shelf below the cab windows looked too pronounced but the handrails do give it away.

RMweb Premium keefer Posted October 13, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 13, 2013 (edited) alas time for bed, but after a quick scoot round, i found possibly D5125 and D5131 with arrows on doors - how common was this?: http://www.flickr.com/photos/59835095@N02/6263527264/in/set-72157627812411185 unfortunately can't see the right end of 25 and 31 doesn't have the odd 'morse code' surround to the headcode box Edited October 13, 2013 by keefer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpion Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) really trivial bit of trivia, the picture of damaged 5131 reminded me back in late December 1972 a scrapyard in Kilnhurst South Yorkshire took consignments of cut up loco parts from BR. No complete locos were involved but the yard was piled high with bits of Warship, Hymek and Clayton, parts from multiple victims could be identified from cabsides and cab interiors amongst the exotica were two oddments,the control desk from 5328 and one class 24 cab door in blue with a double arrow on it, 5131 was scrapped at the same time as 5328 and many claytons, so here, I reckon was its final sighting The yard was swarming with train spotters clambering about on the jagged metal, the police were very understanding once we showed them our notebooks These things don't happen any more Edited October 14, 2013 by scorpion 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium keefer Posted October 14, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) to go OT, but in response to scorpion's post above thought that was a v. early withdrawal for a 53xx - indeed, it was first of the 26s to go.listed as cut at glasgow works 12/72, obviously they didn't do the whole job! http://6lda.wordpress.com/test-history/d5328/ presumably she and the others were only 'cut' as far as removing anything useful, then the remaining bits'n'pieces sent some considerable distance to scrappies to finish the job Edited October 14, 2013 by keefer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpion Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 the chunks were mostly cab sides and fronts, still with control panels attached in 5328s case, very few bodysides and no heavy underframe or bogie parts, possibly alloy bits rather than steel the brass BRCW builders plate was still attached to the desk. this was December 72 so just days after it was recorded cut up in Glasgow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Reid Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 St.Rollox used to cut them into chunks large enough for single wagon loads destined for the scrappie - never new though some would end up in South Yorkshire! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
