Thanks Class 87 022 (Cock of the North) for the memories of taking us on the WCML in the 70's,80's & 90's. RIP

Nah, bit of T-Cut and it'll be good to go.

What caused the fire?

Was it the Transformer?

According to sources on two other sites the damage was external and caused by somebody trying to thaw out a pipe (im guessing it worked much better than they imagined). Damage is not as bad as it looks and opinion is it will be repaired.

Oh the fail!

So who is hoping some Voyagers need their pipes thawed this winter....

In brighter news, after some ten years of languishing 87009 "City of Birmingham" is now in service for Bulmarket, the link is facebook so I'm not sure if this will work for anyone, but hopefully:
