So many of the preservationists today number their locomotives as TOPS examples so its pleasing to see here a Class 20 in rail blue livery but with its pre-TOPS/ pre-'D' identity. 8110, the latter day 20 110, still retaining its cabside recess that used to house the Scottish Region tablet catching apparatus, is pictured here at Buckfastleigh at the South Devon Railway on the 7th November 2009. Also of note on the machine is the non-'wrapped round' yellow bonnet end, believed to have only been applied to a handful of the class including 8110.
