Stopped at Neville Hill with a major alternator defect. Very unlikely to run again: next move almost certainly a one-way trip to the scrapyard.

What "loan" to LNER? It's an LNER power car!

Last working was 15 August I believe, and doesn't appear to have gone to Aberdeen that day.

The failure at Aberdeen (in July) was due to a starter motor defect.

As ‘43096’ says above, last workings were 15 August, on Leeds & Newark services.
