Farewell BR 455868 ( Spanner )
This video pays tribute to BR 455868, known as Spanner, a locomotive that has served on the South Western Mainline for over four decades. It highlights the ongoing changes in the region's rail network, including the planned withdrawal of BR 455s and their replacement by newer rolling stock. The video notes that 455868 was selected for a special repaint into BR Blue livery as part of its farewell to the mainline. While many 455 units have been retired and sent for scrapping, this particular unit was originally slated for disposal but has instead received recognition for its service history.
