Photo Comment

This ex-united frame went to Polar Air Cargo in March 1995. It was withdrawn from the fleet in March 2002 and stored in Polar colours with titles and logos painted over. It acquired these fake MK colours for an anti-terrorism training exercise. After its completion the markings were painted over and it then became all white. Alas, outside in the Scottish weather took its toll and the frame was rendered unsafe so scrappage followed in September 2017.
