    Hi all!
    Whenever I catch a train from Leicester, I always see a bunch of old locomotives hooked together. When my train leaves/arrives, I see old locos such as BR Class 20, 37,47, 08, 91. I wonder what they’re doing with them… are they going to be scrapped? Or be sent to a heritage railway and do rail tours.

    As in? If a company wants a loco to rent, they get given a loco? Is that how leasing works? Because from the sounds of it on their website, the locos are they for maintenance purposes only…
