'As Required' BOC Tanks

BR Railfreight's Trainload Petroleum branded Class 47/0 47196 passes Alexandra Dock Junction Yard with what I am advised could well have been one of the 'as required' workings conveying loaded TEA tanks carrying liquified oxygen from Ditton BOC to Margam T.C. for Port Talbot, (see the comments, below).

Following further research of my files, I noted in May 1992 a 6Z47 12:00 Ditton BOC to Margam T.C. that conveyed 5 loaded TEAs of oxygen and 5 discharged TEAs for return Nitrogen traffic that undertook a driver change at Hereford at circa 16:00.
