BEFORE MY TIME

Before my time in Worcestershire though I had been down to see steam specials.

Brush 31 5837 trundles past Norton Junction in July 1973 with an engineers train of spent ballast for the tip at Honeybourne

TOPS number 31304 is recorded as being applied 1/1/73 on one loco website but another states 31/12/1973 which must be correct

 

Allocated during this period:

Bristol Bath Road 8/1/1972

Old Oak Common 10/5/1975

 

Withdrawn: 14/1/2000

 

Disposal Date: 31/07/1999 at Wigan Springs Branch CRDC
