31102 Gateshead MPD. 29th September 1985.

Image taken by Fellow driver Mick.

 

This was the loco that ran away driverless during final track lifting duties at Pelton on the former Consett branch. It collided with 37072 at Tyne Yard .

 

In the years 1985-1987 I was second man to the driver who was held responsible for this non injury incident.
