I have just learnt that 73 204 and 73 206 were towed through Barking & Upminster to Shoeburyness recently. If I am not mistaken, they will be stored in the MOD depot to the rear of the station. If anybody has some pic's of them, please post them on here.

I understand that they failed at Leigh, and & 47 had to rescue them! (IF there are any photos of this ...)

They were off to pick up some scrappers. One failed at Laindon, and the other at Leigh.

Caused some delays.

Oh dear! So Laindon made the news again? Rolling Eyes

Sorry Guys, but I do hope you were not affected by this?

I was having a formal ride when we passed them at Laindon. We both assumed they were route learning.

I was speaking to a mate who lives IN Laindon last night. We went to school together, were class AND desk mates. It was his **th birthday, Bless him.
