On thursday 5 October I was up in the midlands taking photos. Around midday I took a shot of 60047 on the morning Kingsbury tanks. In the afternoon I was at Wynchnor Jn when it came back north looking rather worse for wear, the return tanks having been cancelled. Anyone know how it received the damage in the second photo?

Scratches down the side, damaged grilles and bent cab handrails.
It looks like it's tried to go past a wagon that hasn't been pushed quite far enough into a siding, but that's only a guess.

From what I heard it had an argument at Kingsbury with a scrap wagon.
