Wakefield Kirkgate

Derby built ex-BR Class 11 Shunter 12082 rests by the stop block for the reception sidings to the former Cobra Railfreight steel terminal, alongside Wakefield Kirkgate, on 28 May 1996. This loco is now preserved on the Mid Hants Railway Watercress Line, renumbered to 12049 to take the identity of the one destroyed in a major fire affecting an operational building at the line.
