So so sad. I spotted in the 80s as a teenager. My house backed onto the Coventry - Leamington line, oh the joy and thrill of hearing and then seeing a 50 Hoover thunder past!

nice bit of history mate, thanks for sharing it. and to think 7 years previous the 50's were refurbished at Doncaster into large logo livery, they looked stunning on the Dawlish sea front from Langstone rock

Stuck my nose into OC last week to have a look from the footbridge by the canal. The Factory is all gone and levelled as is the turntable. Foundations for sidings going in for Crossrail, but no diesels ticking over :-(

There are quite a few class 50s preserved. Indeed, in the last few years, Arriva Trains Wales have used perserved class 50s on and off for scheduled passengers services in the summer.

They should have at lest kept a couple of them for posterity. Although having seen a few old Hammersley Iron (Western Australia) locomotive cabs gathering rust, would have loved to save a couple. Would put them on a couple of rail bogies and a chassis, fill out where the engine room was, and it would be my "ornamental greenhouse" lol

The real scandal is that they sold the rights/drawings etc for the APT to Sweden. It appeared as the X-train and Sweden then sold it round the world!!!!

Torch this rubbish. 18 of these have been preserved, we don't need any more. We don't even need as many as 18. Cut the rest for scrap!
