    This morning at 08:00 I passed a tender in British Railways green livery on a low loader, parked up under the M25 at Junction 17, Marple Cross (between the M40 and the M1). Does anyone know which locomotive this belongs too and where it was going to (and from)?

    I passed 34028 Eddystone on the back of a low-loader on the M1 on Tuesday 9th heading north, could it be for this?
