L425 (51363, 59510 & 51405) calls at Hayles Abbey Halt on 27 October 2024 with the 2C13 09:25 Broadway to Cheltenham Racecourse service. This was the unit's last day in traffic on the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway, as it has been sold to the Scottish Railway Preservation Society. Although the unit spent most of its working life on the Western Region, working out of Paddington, the move to Scotland will actually be taking it back home, as its new base at Bo'ness is not that far from Linwood, where it was built in 1960. |
