No doubts as to which depot this "Duff" is based at: Class 47/0 no. 47122 heads south through the station on a Harwich to London Freightliner. The white roof of the loco is the giveaway, a well-known trade mark of Stratford Depot, London. No. 47122 entered service at Old Oak Common as D1711 in January 1964 and was withdrawn from service in September 1987. Sent for scrap to MC Metals Springburn it was cut up October 1989.
