 Literally ON the loop line. The set builders left clearance for one of the ex SRA
diesels, the car set and the 27 class. 
 When D1 was sent up as the tail end pilot engine, it's bogie springs almost
demolished the set :-). They left D1 parked up there overnight as they didn't want to
risk damaging the 'house' any more.
