Ex-BR class11 12084 is seen shunting loaded coal hoppers at NCB Bates Colliery, Blyth in late 1981.

Built in 1950, this loco spent most of its working life at Carlisle before withdrawal from Crewe in 1971 and subsequent sale to the NCB North East area who finally scrapped it at their Philadelphia workshops in Co Durham in 1985.
