Felixstowe Dock & Railway Company ex-BR diesel shunter D3489 Felixstowe

This loco was built at Darlington Works in 1958 as D3489 for British Railways. Of the type later known as class 10, they were similar to class 08 but fitted with Blackstone engines rather than English Electric. The last were withdrawn by BR in 1972. This example was sold in 1968 and worked at Felixstowe Docks where it was seen on 1 November 1980 during a rail tour to the Docks branch. This loco is currently (2021) preserved on the Spa Valley Railway.
