Bounds Green depot is just a short distance north of Alexandra Palace station with access to the facility via a single service road to the east of the station and the down slow. In this manoeuvring move resident shunter, 08571 brings 82207 and a set of Mk. IV stock out of the depot and then, as a short time later return it again. 08571 is owned and operated by Wabtec Rail Limited based at Doncaster and looks very smart in their all-black livery. It entered service in June 1959 as D3738 and spent all of its working life at various Scottish depots until coming south in more recent years.
