G'day everyone,
I thought this might make for an interesting thread. Essentially anything can be included if you think it makes a case for being a celebrity!
My nomination is an obvious one but nevertheless at least it gets the ball rolling. 40122 aka D200 was rescued from the scrap line at Carlisle Kingmoor in the early 1980's, nursed back to health and painted green. From memory it was a regular runner on the S &C and I'm assuming that it was based at Kingmoor. However I'm not sure when Kingmoor closed or indeed whether 40122 outlived Kingmoor.
Any suggestions would be very welcome, including class 08's which received fancy paint jobs. I would also appreciate any more information on 40122 and its rescue from the scrap line / allocations. I have a picture of it at Carlisle on the 18.08.83 before it took us south along the S & C on a beautiful summers day. Memories!
Kind regards,
Richmond Commuter!
