One of the few remaining loco-hauled services from London arrives in 1990. There was a slim chance of this being a Class 50 prior to July of that year.

Preserved British Rail Class 08 0-6-0 'Gronk' diesel electric shunter 08786 at Barrow Hill Railway Centre near Chesterfield in Derbyshire (UK).
08786 was built at Derby Works as D3954 in 1960 and was withdrawn from service after 50 years on September 30th 2010.
The Class 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.

Another Majorette Premium single which managed to escape from all that fancy packaging into the basic range was this superb latest generation Mercedes-Benz A-Class. It now meant all this realism and accuracy could all be yours for less than the price of a HW and MBX but twice the features! One of many bought from Morrisons back in September 2016. Mint and boxed.
A couple of class 20s hauling a Pathfinder Tours on the long way round from Waterloo to Portsmouth. 20314 in front with 20107 at the rear. Seen at Eltham in the rain.

At one time, the most comfortable trains on the South London Metro!

Top express loco 47413 is seen departing Edge Hill with a lowly engineers train, hardly befitting this locos pedigree. Surely there must of been a class 25 kicking around.
