Steam and Diesel on Swindon Shed

            In 1964 7029 Clun Castle is stabled on Swindon Shed (82C) in the company of Hymek D7014 and a Diesel Shunter.  The loco was allocated new to Newton Abbott (83A) in 1950, moving to Old Oak Common (81A) as dieselisation in the area progressed.  7029 moved to Gloucester Horton Road (85B) in October 1964 and survived to be the last member of the class in regular service.  Withdrawal came at the end of steam on the region on 1 January 1966.  Preservation awaited and the loco is currently in mainline use.
