40 135 hauls ADB968013 as part of a Norwich - March freight through Trowse on the outskirts of Norwich 04/10/82. ADB968013 was a converted Class 31/0, used as a carriage pre-heat steam unit. Most Inter City workings from Norwich received air conditioned stock during 1980, so ADB968013 was now redundant and was being taken for scrap.

40 004 leaves Coventry with the 11:50 Paddington - Birmingham New Street, 1/5/82. Pictures of this working have appeared in several publications over the years. By chance I was in the area that day, and found out from enthusisats on the platforms at Banbury that 40 004 had taken over a failed train and worked through to Paddington. I picked up the return working from Reading and travelled to Coventry on it.
