Eastleigh in 1994. A loco is required for duty and it's stuck behind a load of semi-retired 33s and a 37. See the duty-man firing up all these and sticking them in a siding to release the one required. Why was THAT one required? Not a clue. Someone out there might know - perhaps it had some special equipment? Or was due scrapping?
