31st May 1987

Class 25/1s nos. 25095 and 25190 are coupled together, having arrived by rail just two days before, along with 25034 and 25037. Unlike 25190, which was despatched almost straight away, 25095 had a stay of execution for a while, ending up in the infamous stack of locomotive bodies, and not being finally scrapped until February 1989.
