Locomotive History
08331 was originally D3401 and is a Derby built locomotive and dates from 1957. It spent its early years shunting the docks at Cardiff being allocated to Cardiff East Dock MPD before transferring along the South Wales coast to Swansea Danygraig MPD in 1963 and when that closed in March 1964 to Swansea Landore MPD. By 1973 it had migrated to Yorkshire and was a Barrow Hill engine transferring to Doncaster by 1982. Withdrawn by BR by 1991 it was purchased by Wabtec for hire work and numbered H001. During this period it gained a version of GNER blue livery when in use as the depot shunter at Craigentinny, Edinburgh. After a couple of years out of use at Doncaster it was in May 2006 sold to RT Rail and it was used at Mountsorrel for six months from December 2007 until it arrived on the MRC in July 2008. During 2011/12 it had a spell as the yard pilot at Washwood Heath before returning to the Midland Railway Centre.
