Morning mate, I did not say it was an 08 that rescued the train, I said it was an 08 on the front, pulling the train and it WAS an 08 because I saw it myself on the screen.

The class 14 were known as teddy bears or so I thought. I was running a model mine at an exhibition when an ex BR depot manager who maintained them told me that the crews called them Yogi Bears. So presumably it got changed by enthusiasts over time.
