160
Durham: arriving with 1V99 a Newcastle to Bristol Temple Meads express 08/10/1971.
160 became 46023 under TOPS. It later went into Departmental service as 97402 in 1983. I think it was backup loco to 97401 (46009) which was destroyed in the famous staged crash into a nuclear flask in 1984. 97402 appears to have been withdrawn from Departmental stock soon after.
A Metro Cam DMU sits in Platform 2 with 1N85 a train from York to Berwick upon Tweed.
