I was very surprised to see in Railways Illustrated that 56009 still exists and is owned by UK Rail Leasing.
This loco, which I believe is more or less an empty shell, was at Brush Traction for many years as a "test bed".
I thought it has been scrapped at Booths but apparently it was reprieved and is stored on the Battlefield Line.
Could it be then that UKRL are considering re-engining it?
