45015

            45015, seen from a train heading south towards Shenton from Shackerstone station.

The loco has been abandoned on a siding at the Battlefield Line since 2002. The lack of windows and the view through the old ventilation grille hole below & straight into the cab shows that the engine is essentially a shell and never likely to run again.

The cost of removing asbestos from the bolier also means that it is too costly to send the loco for scrap.

45015 was built in November 1960 and withdrawn in March 1986.
