By 1991 time was running out for these loco's within twelve months they would be replaced by 47/7's displaced from Thames Valley duties by new Class 165/166 Turbo DMU's.
This was to be the last time I would see this loco. The first sighting was on June 12th 1976 when she took me from Crewe to Chester at the head of the Emerald Isle Express.

British Rail Class 20 locomotive No. 20189 (originally English Electric Type 1 No. D8189) at Kidderminster station during Severn Valley Railway’s spring diesel festival on 14 May 2026.

I always liked the look of these Swindon built Class 123 DMUs, although this is the only picture I ever took of one, seen departing Doncaster on a Hull to Manchester service in February 1984. On their last legs at this time, they were withdrawn a few months later.

~Little Bogie Kenner Blythe only appeared nervous, as she took her place in line at the assembly ... knowing she would not be chosen for the Homecoming Queen, or even the Court that year.
She knew she stood out from the cookie-cutter-cut-out crowd, and in fact, she had even heard grapevine rumblings that some considered her ... well ... a bit
"unusual" ...
But she also knew, as sure as a girl with a large head, four sets of eyes, and a pull-ring adorning the back of her head ... that deep down she was way before her time.
All she had to do was keep being herself, resist all temptation to become a "Barbie" ... and that no matter how many years may transpire ...
she really needed to WAIT ... to TRUST in the ultimate wisdom and timing of the Universe to be JUST RIGHT ... and it would be her turn to SHINE !!
