            With day starting to fade fast 50008 Thunderer drifts through Derby on a light engine move from Old Dalby back to its current “home depot”, Knottingley, 14th February 2024.

Locomotive History
50008 was originally D408 and was built at the English Electric Vulcan Foundry works, Newton-Le-Willows. It entered traffic, allocated to Western Lines (Crewe) in March 1968 on Crewe – Glasgow West Coast Main Line duties. With the completion of the West Coast Main Line electrification to Glasgow in 1974 thirty five class 50’s were transferred to the Western Region, however 50008 was one of the fifteen locomotives retained by the London Midland Region until finally transferred to the Western Region in May 1976. In 1978 it was decided to name the class after Royal Navy warships and on the on the 1st September 1978 50008 was named Thunderer with the plates being fitted without ceremony at Laira MPD. In the early 1980’s it was decided to refurbish the class 50 fleet and 50008 entered Doncaster works for refurbishment and was released back into traffic on the 21st December 1981. 50008 worked it last train in November 1991 but was not officially withdrawn until June 1992. Following withdrawal it was sold to Pete Waterman who resold it to Sea Containers in 1998 however neither owner undertook any real work on the locomotive and it quietly decayed stored in the open at LNWR Crewe. In 2006 it was sold to a private individual who has funded its overhaul and the locomotive is again operational currently being operated by Hanson and Hall.
