Images:
15th February 1982
Class 112 DMBS 51692 at BSC Shotton on 15 February 1982. It had been bought, along with 51691, from Birds at Long Marston in the early 1970s for use as permanent way vehicles at the steelworks, and they would be painted into a grey livery. It looks like it had been out of use for some time in this image, and is believed to have been cut up on site at some point over the next couple of years. Steve Large.
