I used to see class 25's running light loco a lot of the time, but 25313 seems to have found a couple of wagons to play with in the parcels bay. Note the Royal Mail lorry behind the rear wagon. The driver has an audience as he carries out the manoeuvre - it's a Saturday afternoon and I suspect the guys are preparing to finish work for the day. The bay no longer exists.
