47527 had moved about in its life being ostensively a

north eastern engine. It had spells in Scotland and the West Country. It was withdrawn in 1992 as an Inter-City Swallow engine and cut up at Bristol. It was named 'Kettering' for the last 3 years of its life. 40064 was initially a Scottish engine before moving south. It was withdrawn in April 1982 and returned to Crewe's Melt Plant for a protracted and painful death! Thanks to some help from a fellow enthusiast, Keith Riley who was also there on the day, I can now identify the third locomotive to the right as 40168, my notes from the day let me down on this occasion. 40168 lasted in service until the end of November 1984, being withdrawn and stored at Crewe Diesel Depot and then the works languishing on until final cutting in August 1986. Note the clothing and accessories being worn by the enthusiasts, it could only be the 1970s!
