    13 Built by Ruston & Hornsby in January 1957 with the serial number 408493, this 0-4-0 shunter was ordered specifically for departmental use by the Western region in Readings Signal Works. The transmission was diesel mechanical, although the wheels were chain driven from the gearbox and the loco was rated at 88 BHP for a weight of only 17 tons. Delivered to the WR with the number 20 it was renumbered to 97020 in May 1980. However withdrawal came in April 1981 and it was scrapped on site in August 1982 by Cartwrights of Tipton. For refuelling, it had to go via the main line to the depot at Reading. Photographed under a bridge and through a fence, hence the poor quality picture.... 2-7-77  British Rail Shunters --- Class 01 to 13  (9)

    20 66215 pounds through Culoz station deep in SNCF territory as it works a mid morning train towards Geneva, presumably for the Evian water bottling plant. One thing that stands out is the quite considerable difference in the loading guage. 66215 was the first class 66 to work under its own power in France. This was on January 5 2006 at the SNCF test track section between Plouaret and Plounerin near Brest in Brittany. Then after visiting the test centre at Vitry for static testing, 215 was moved down to the line bewteen Angers and Nantes for further running trials. 26-2-8  British Rail Type 5 --- Class 55 - 56 - 58 - 59 - 66 - 67  (8)
