Sutton Weaver, HNRC 20118 & 20132 0Z20 (07.45 Pinnox Branch Esso Sdgs - Ellesmere Port Manisty Wharf) 18/10/19.
Harry Needle's 20118 & 20132 on loan to DCR make their way light engine to Ellesmere Port Manisty Wharf to pick up wagons, seen here crossing the Weaver Navigation at Sutton Weaver in Cheshire.
Who would have thought it, a pair of venerable class 20 locos still in revenue earning service in 2019. This pairing have chalked up a staggering 110 years service between them.
* Thanks go to Peter Laithwaite for spotting this rare working and giving me the heads-up.
