On what looks to be a very frosty morning, F63 is about to leave the low-loader for her home rails in the yard at Douglas.

F63 outside at Douglas in mid February 2023, after being un-wrapped from the tarpaulins and protective layers applied in Haltwhistle for crossing the Irish Sea.
For Info : B10 is the further ex-4-wheeler body.
IIRC, some further work will be required to complete fitting the vacuum brakes.

F63 (B6 & B10) was withdrawn in 1987, stored in Port Erin carriage shed.
As seen on our visit during September 2018. The other three "Pairs" are under tarpaulins at Port St Mary. {subsequently moved - in 2021 - to under-cover storage elsewhere on the Island}
