47089 Amazon approaches Baulking in freezing conditions on 19 January 1985 with a short engineer's train. The bridge in the background marks the site of Uffington station. Two years later 47089 was involved in an accident at Chinley North Junction, when its overloaded stone train ran away and was derailed. The wreckage was hit by 31440 working the 1M34 16.22 Sheffield to Liverpool service. Both locos sustained substantial damage, and were withdrawn. |
