Following restoration in October 2009 after twenty three years out of use 08220 appears to be receiving some minor repairs as it is seen here being shunted around the yard at the Great Central Railway (North) headquarters, Ruddington, 27th February 2010.

Locomotive History
Originally 13290 and then D3290 it was built at Derby in 1956 and allocated to Nottingham MPD. It was transferred to Crewe ten years later on the closure of Nottingham MPD in 1966 where it would remain until withdrawal. It received it last classified repair at Swindon works in March 1978 and this repair would keep 08220 in traffic for another eight years until withdrawn in March 1986. Following withdrawal it was sold as a source of spares and moved to Carnforth where it would slowly decay for almost twenty years. After a spell in a farmers yard at Wrenbury from 2006 it arrived at Ruddington in October 2008 and after twenty three years of neglect has been fully restored. On the 7th August 2014 it left Ruddington and arrived at the EMD depot at Longport on hire to become the depot pilot.
