Reincarnation and Death - 2 January 2014

Railway vehicles come to Eastleigh for many reasons. Some come for refurbishment and others will never leave. Some assist others in their journey whatever the reason for it. Translator Coaches are used for movements of stock incompatible with the assigned locomotive usually because of the coupling system. In this view, QSA Translator Coach T2/ADB975875, converted from Mk 1 stock, is seen with withdrawn Underground C stock car 5514 which most likely arrived by road for scrapping.
