47111 leads the 09.08 Newcastle to Paignton cross country service

on the approach to Hele and Bradninch in Devon. The semaphores are controlled by the signal box a short distance from this spot at the level crossing. 47111 had a somewhat ignominious end being stripped and cut up at its home depot of Cardiff Canton after being badly damaged by a DMU striking it at Preston in January 1986. At least part of it lived on with the number one cab being wholly removed and sent to Crewe for re-use.
