This morning on my way to Bo'ness to enjoy 80105's finale weekend, we passed by a WC 47 in sidings between Bishopbriggs and Lenzie. There was also a DRS 66 present, but the locos weren't together.

Can't recall the number of the 47, but anyone got any ideas what it was up to? Just curious. Got me in the mood for being behind one at Bo'ness, but alas, no diesel services there this weekend.

The location is Cadder Yard (although the name is hardly deserved now!)
Should be 47760
This location is now used to store WCRC rolling stock between duties in the Glasgow area
Some kind of steam engine is playing around Scotland, hence why the 47 has remained there

Leander was in Glasgow on the third, but she was stabled at Bo'ness yesterday.
