Class 08, 08836
British Rail Class 08 0-6-0 diesel electric shunter 08836 at Ongar Station on the heritage Epping Ongar Railway (EOR) in Essex (UK).
08836 entered service as D4004 on November 11th 1960 and remains in service some 55 years later at Old Oak Common Traction and Rolling Stock Maintenance Depot (2015).
08836 was a guest locomotive at the EOR courtesy of First Great Western Ltd.
The 08 (09/10/11) shunter 0-6-0 design was based on the LMS Class D3/7 shunter of 1939 and LMS 12033 shunter series for the war department in early 1945 so it's safe to assume the basic body design you see here dates from the late 1930s.
