Hymek D7089 on Swindon Works scrapline in March 1974, buffered up to Western D1019 - both withdrawn from service the previous May. While the Western was cut up here in October 1974 the Hymek was later removed from the works yard. It reappeared on a scrap line at Laira in 1975, then later at Thomson's in Stockton, where it was cut up in February 1976, the only Hymek to be scrapped in the North East. Can anyone help in determining the reason for this strange sequence of events? [Added 130310]
