55005 Doncaster Works

In the works for the last time, summer 1981.

 

'THE PRINCE OF WALES'S OWN REGIMENT OF YORKSHIRE' was retired on 8th February 1981. Either this loco or 55002 were to be preserved at the NRM, both having 'Yorkshire' in their names. The latter got the nod, and 55005 was cut up in 1983.
