BRCW Type 2 No.D5384 in January 1966 at Hathern north of Loughborough on the Midland main line. Built at Smethwick in May 1962 it stayed in the Midlands until February 1970 when it moved to Glasgow Eastfield. No.D5384 has two brake tenders in tow; these were low, heavy wagons used with early main line diesel locomotives. One or two were coupled next to the locomotive to provide extra braking power when hauling unfitted or partially fitted freight trains. Originally intended to be used in North East England, where they were usually propelled by the locomotive, and later used in other regions. The tender took the form of a hollow box, low enough to avoid obscuring the driver's view when pushed. The body, which was carried on a pair of former carriage bogies, was filled with scrap steel to raise the weight of the vehicle to 35½�37½ tons, consequently increasing the available brake force. They were taken out of use in the 1980s as more and more freight trains became fully fitted.
