E6003 made it last appearance at the S&C during the railway's Diesel Gala on 28 September 2008. 

Our loco has now been 'stopped' for further renovation work on the cabs as well as routine maintenance work.

The next planned running days will be the Swindon & Cricklade's Diesel Gala on 14/15 March 2009 although she may appear in service at short notice to meet operational requirements.

If you are planning to travel to the S&C to see E6003 please contact John Mangan in advance to check whether any of the team will be on site to meet you.
