31196 at Stratford 1996. It Took Another Five Years To Finally Scrap It!

Brush Locomotive 31196 was built at the Falcon works in Loughborough in 1960.  The Loco’s original number was D5620 and it was allocated to March Depot in Cambridgeshire. It later transferred to Stratford and then to Immingham where it worked for the next twenty odd years.

In 1991 it transferred back to Stratford where it was withdrawn from service in February 1993. 31196 was stored at Stratford until 2001 when it was scrapped on site. It’s pictured here falling to pieces and being cannibalized at Stratford Depot in April 1996. It had to wait like this for another five years before finally being scrapped.

31407 and 31459 at Peterborough April 1996.

31407 and 31459 seen on the Carriage Road at Peterborough Holding Sidings on April 5 1996.

31407 was renumbered from D5640 on December 31 1973 and eventually scrapped in 2006. 31459 was renumbered from D5684to 31256 on the same day and again to 31459 on 14 December 1984. The loco was named Cerberus on June 16 1999. I believe that the loco was allocated to Fragonset Railways at Derby but am not sure about it’s eventual fate.
