The morning of Sunday 5th September 1976 finds a row of apparently dumped class 03 shunters at the east end of Healey Mills Yard. In fact No. 03 097 in the middle was the only one of this trio not to see further service - 03 047 on the left was only in store and would not be withdrawn until the middle of 1979, while 03 111 on the right was reinstated a couple of months later at Gateshead TMD and soldiered on into 1980.
