Class 56 London Victoria

[JammyJames08]

Back in December 2022 I was lucky enough to catch a picture of 56081 with 69004 on a RHTT train on platform one at London Victoria.

I would like to ask here, prior to this date when was the last time a class 56 visited the terminal? I cannot find anything on a google or Flickr search.

Thanks!

There was almost certainly one in between those dates, but 56031 visited there with a railtour in 1999.

Six Bells Junction

Some also dragged EMUs out of Victoria during the snow chaos of January 1987.

Thanks. I thought around the turn of the century would be about right.
