47818 being attached to 1P42 16.00 LV-NR at Colchester due to
defective windscreen wiper. Probably coming back up dead on rear of
18.30 NR-LV to work 21.30 LV-NR.

47818 has died on the approach to Manningtree.

1P42 terminated Manningtree. 90 on the London end will haul the set to
Colchester, run round then haul the set (and the dead 47 and its
engine room full of steam) to NC. Assumne some sort of stepping up
will occur to keep the service running.
