Hello everyone, there used to be a 31 at Bletchley that used to work the Bletchley to Bedford branch and it was a named member of the class, called BLETCHLEY PARK.
Is it still about somewhere does anyone know please ?
I am sorry I do not remember the engine number.

Thank you for that mate, I wish it had been in 00 gauge, pity that.
Because although my favourite diesel was the 25, I did quite like the 31, although when they were working the Birmingham New St to Norwich trains they did have quite a few failures.
