There have been two Cl150/2 vehicles scrapped because of accident damage following seperate heavy collisions with road vehicles on crossings (I think). This was way back in the 1980's and BR ordered up an extra Cl158 to cover for the loss. Not sure of the unit and vehicle numbers, but someone will know.

Before anyone nominates Cl317's, there was a Cl317 vehicle written off at Cricklewood when new. Someone got a bit enthusiastic with a Peak with "hilarious consequences". Click and, er, click.

BREL York just knocked up a new one and no-one was any the wiser.
