40036, up coal empties, Dent SDS764876 40036 leads a long rake of mixed and empty coal wagons on the approach to Dent station taken from the road bridge. Notice the tall Dent distant signal towards the rear of the train. The signal remained pulled off as were all the arms controlled by Dent box as it was switched out. 40036 was in service for another two years before withdrawal and cutting up at Swindon Works that was completed by September 1982. Today, this lovely open view of the wild fells is somewhat compromised by rampant tree growth, ably illustrated in an image taken by Martin Loader (Hondawanderer), see.....http://www.hondawanderer.com/40145_Dent_2020.htm coincidentally, also of a Class 4o and some forty years later!
