Backup Plan
Preserved green liveried 'Crompton' D6515 (33 012) sits in platform 3 at Clapham Junction on the rear of light engine move 0Z28.
This was a positioning move for rebuilt Bulleid Pacific 34028 'Eddystone' running from the Swanage Railway to West Coast Railway's centre at Southall, it's first run on the main line in 61 years. I'm guessing the '33' was attached on the rear as a backup in case of a problem with the 'Pacific' locomotive.
