D6515 (33012) Departs Eastleigh Works 5th May 2011

D6515 (33012) departs Eastleigh Works to return to Swanage with 73136 and 73205. Most people will notice the shiny new paintwork but few will realise the thousands of man hours and hard work that has gone into the overhaul of this loco over the last two and a bit years! A credit to James Cox and his team from 71A Locomotive Group - Well Done Lads!!
