Raskelf

Class 69 pioneer 69001 Mayflower runs slowly north at Raskelf at the head of the 3Q99 Doncaster Wood Yard to Tees Yard, and return, weedkilling working on Sunday 25 June 2023. 66744 was tailing the rake. 69001 is the former class 56 56031, converted by fitting a class 66 type General Motors power unit, alongside a raft of other modifications. 56031 was itself a pioneer, being the first of the UK built class 56s. See image 28102 for a view of 69001 in its earlier guise.
