  Coach is not grounded - there is no plate on the underframe, but both bogies are marked LNE.

  Now located in the A1 Steam Locomotive Trust's Darlington Locomotive Works on the the Hopetown Darlington site. Presumably a new preservation location needs creating for this site which includes the Hopetown Darlington museum buildings, A1 Steam Locomotive Trust Darlington Locomotive Works and the 1861 Stockton & Darlington Railway locomotive shed now used by the Darlington Railway Preservation Society and North Eastern Locomotive Preservation Group.

  Having finally found a photograph that confirms when it was that I saw this coach and added a sighting I note that the CVRM is not in the list of Welsh Preserved Railways/Museums, or this coach listed under Miscellaneous.

  After arriving at Llangollen this coach was renovated with more windows as a function coach for private hire trains. Prior to August 2014 it was painted in maroon and numbered M 34584.

  Nick told me

  "Gut feeling in the 1998 to 2002 period which is quite wide.... It was not far away from Walsoken where 041509 is just on the Emneth side of the A47. I have been back since but couldnt trace it. The other picture is a close up on the other van in the background. Remember looking very close for a number without any luck."

  I wonder if the other van might be 041873 as it is same type and was also at Cambridge EY...

  Visited Tebay last week, no sign of TDB975177 where I had seen it previously. Presumed moved elsewhere, any one know where?

  Bryn Engineering Services Ltd would appear to have been dissolved. The premises they were using on Blackrod Industrial Estate, Scot Lane, Blackrod now appear to be being used by Northern Locomotive Engineering. It is here that 024323 is currently located along with B780238, B904510 & B904520 as well as several steam locomotives.

  Seems likely this is no longer around either...

  I've not been able to check recently but do we assume this was scrapped in 2020 as suggested by VCT?

  Anyone know if these two are still lurking here?

  The amount of times in recent years I've rode past trying to see this pair on the depot and not a sniff. I'm sure they're both kept in the small building which has no windows rather than the big main one..

  This and 68001 had a run out from Southall to Ripple Lane yesterday to help rescue the stranded 4TC set...

  Following my 2013 comment (!) Strangely we're still missing a photo of this one. I seem to remember it wasn't in a particular easy place to photograph in Hinksey...?

  Saw this van at Derek (Dusty) Miller scrapyard at Kings Lynn docks. Unfortunately exact date wasn't shown in my logs but between other entries on 19th November before and 6th December after in 1994.

  Confirmed still there on 14/12/25, now buried in trees. Photos in top post at https://www.rmweb.co.uk/topic/70783-jim%E2%80%99s-%E2%80%9Cout-and-about-with-gbrf%E2%80%9D-thread/page/425/#comments

  I'm told this has now returned to Kirby Misperton.

  09-11-1988 seems pretty good.

• 975009

  3 January 2026 - Nicholas Youngman

  Yes 12-07-1988 is certainly correct arrival date as saw it near Ely Dock Junction.

  I last logged it on 23-10-88 but no idea exact date it was burnt.
