First time to Inverness?
25046 is seen parked on Inverness depot on 2nd July 1977.
This had been an LMR loco from new, but was reallocated to Haymarket only a month or so before this photo was taken, so it might well be its first visit so far north.
Despite an overhaul at Glasgow Works in 1980, this loco was stored in early 1981 and quickly withdrawn, but hung around until eventually being cut up in 1987 by Vic Berry in Leicester.
