Jeremiah Dixon has been resident at the works in recent weeks, apparently awaiting wagons to complete repairs. This is the oldest surviving Class 56, originally delivered from Romania as 56003, reaching Zeebrugge on 13th August 1976, as the second delivery from Craiova, entering traffic on 28th February 1977. Withdrawn in 1999 with worn centre castings, it reached Booth's scrapyard in Rotherham from Toton in February 2004. In April 2004, it was sold into preservation,
initially at MOD Ashchurch, and later at the
Nene Valley Railway. In 2008 it became
56312 Artemis in the
Hanson Traction fleet, a predecessor to
DC Rail.
