After looking at some 1970's WTT's, I noticed many references to "COY".
I found out that COY meant a company train, and the ones I was interested in came from / ran to Stanlow refinery owned by Shell.
Now does this mean the whole train (including the loco) were owned by Shell? or did BR locos simply attach to the Shell oil wagons?
I'm sure this one will be easy for someone to answer!
Thanks,
Andy.
