As an interesting point, Last Friday (if it was the same Friday) I
observed both of those C classes shunted to the back of the carriage
shed where upon one was started up, (didn't see the number but it was
the one nearest the shed).  I was a little surprised as I was under the
impression that the 'C's were providing parts for 'BL's also I didn't
see any pressurizing before hand.
