    60019 was also used in September 1966 the day after it worked the Edinburgh - York leg of a weekend A4 Farewell from Aberdeen (The Grampian) when it was used on a York - Healey Mills trip freight; on return to York Geoff Drury took possession on the footplate before it entered the shed for the last time.

    Strictly speaking one locomotive from the Corris Railway should be added to the pre-1900 GWR list.
