Summary

[edit]
Description

From the same visit on 27 April 1982 to the "graveyard" at BREL Swindon Works, class 31/0 31017 was caught on camera.

These first 20 of the class 31 Brush Type 2 locos, originally numbered D5500-D5519, recognisable as they did not have the headcode box mounted on the roof above the cab. This lead them to be given the nickname "Skinheads". They were also nicknamed "Toffee Apples" from the shape of the control key which had to be taken from cab to cab when changing ends.
