LMS 08

BR class 08, 08805 at Tyseley depot, Birmingham, seen in its ficticious LMS red livery adjacent to the main depot entrance on the Warwick Road.

 

The TYS based Jocko was named "Concorde" and was given its original BR number of 3973.

 

It is still extant in 2020, painted in Railfreight grey and is utilised as the depot shunter at Soho.

 

It is seen coupled to an ancient blue tank wagon, used for Etheylene Glycol, or antifreeze.
