Class 37 37258 & Class 20 20107 at Thornaby (1980s)
Pictured in the evening sunlight at Thornaby is 37258 with 20107 sneaking into view. Fresh from the Tupperware Box of Surprises, there is sadly no date with this one, but it is fair to guess mid to late 1980s. Certainly no later as 20107 became an RMS Locotec engine and, starting in January 1991, was leased to operate the steel trains on the branch line from Dragonby Sidings at Normanby Park, Scunthorpe, to the steel terminal at Flixborough Wharf.
37258 (D6958 - Built January 1965) went on to become Class 37/3 37384 in October 1998 but was withdrawn soon after during December 1999. It was cut up by Harry Needle at EMR Kingsbury during November 2005.
20107 (D8107 - Built December 1961) is happily back in service as part of the Locomotive Services fleet and is running as 20107 / D8107 "Jocelyn Feilding 1940 - 2020" with a British Railways Green / Grey livery.
