[KODIAK BEAR]

did these shunters all have the small cooker/grill thingy ma jig in the cab?
09024,25,26 were based at bournemouth many moons ago and i can rememeber getting a 'cab ride' and going shunting in the bournemouth east yard and brewing up with the driver and shunters.

so if anyone knows if all or the majority of the shunters had cookers, please let me know.

thanks

Most of the older loco's have a warming plate for the crews to make tea,i am not too sure about the newer loco's.
All the best,Ian.

Most 08 and 09's were refurbished in the cab in the early 1980's and a small electric hob was fitted,also formica panelling in the roof and a heater beneath the cooker.
