802114 shunt move at Eastleigh, 9th January 2026

GWR 802114 5X88 13:01 Eastleigh Works Gbrf - Eastleigh Works Gbrf. From the appearance of the unit, it had just completed the weld work for the full repair of cracks, for which it entered the works on 7th November, and was next heading into the paint shop for finishing.

Interestingly, 802114 had been in the Works in 2024, from 18th November to 23rd December, when it appears to have been inspected and repainted, being noted on a similar shunt on 28th November that year.


Proceeding very slowly from the Works into platform 2.


Running into platform 2, led by PDTRBF 839114.


PDTS 831114.
