56301 'enjoying' a visit to UKRL at Loughborough today behind 60055 on 1409 0Z60 Chaddesden to Loughborough Brush after failing again on 6Z45 last Friday
Not many people that ”know” the details. Even among those that work on Brush locomotives.Word among enthusiasts on the platform was that 081 was on her last run but I don't know the details.
I’ve seen recently that apparently repairs to 56301 were authorised? Perhaps it’s referring to 56098 either going back to GBRf or back on hire to Colas?Posts on Class 56 Group facebook this evening
Post "Is it (301) still with DCR currently?"
Class 56 Group reply "Yes but not for much longer"
Post "Believe it's going to either Colas or GBRf"
If the C56G response and third post are correct I wonder if that means DCR have no further interest, temporarily or permanently, in 301
