Permanent Way Maintenance

One of the PWM Shunters that could be found at various WR Permanent Way locations. If I remember, one was based at Radyr and one at Taunton but I can't remember the other locations. This one's undergoing an overhaul and repaint into all over yellow at Swindon works.

 

They lived remarkably long lives performing their engineering duties out of the spotlight, outliving much more numerous and modern classes.

 

They were of course departmental locomotives belonging to the CCE as can be seen from the lettering on the cab.
