Do you come here often? 55032 (121032) makes 85 return trips a day, 6 days a week, on the one mile Cardiff Bay branch. So as it approaches its 50th birthday it is still covering over 50,000 revenue earning miles a year (in low gears!). Here it is seen at its reserved platform just before departure on another of the five times an hour branch shuttles to Cardiff Bay [See image 25789].
