More 56s for cutting

Following the recent DB Schenker tender list, all the 56s listed for sale have been sold to European Metal Recycling, and will no doubt be bound for their Kingsbury scrap yard in the near future. They are – 56041, 56053, 56055, 56062, 56072, 56085, 56088, 56093, 56099, 56100, 56102, 56108, 56110, 56111, 56119, 56127 and 56129.

As an aside, the Class 58 Locomotive Group have successfully purchased 58016 for preservation and must be congratulated on taking a massive step nearer to securing the future of the class.
