No. 60081 was built at Brush Traction. The locomotive was delivered in November 1991 with a Trainload Metals Sector livery and 'Bleaklow Hill' as a name. 60081 gained a new lined GWR Brunswick Green livery and it was renamed 'Isambard Kingdom Brunel' on 5 August 2000 at Old Oak Common for the open day. 60081 became the Class 60's 'celebrity' locomotive due to this. In 2020, Locomotive Storage Limited preserved the locomotive for static display and it is currently housed at the Margate One:One Collection.
What is the One:One Collection?
The The One:One Collection​​​​​​​ is a unique gathering of some of the most iconic and historically important railway locomotives, rolling stock and memorabilia in the United Kingdom.
Each vehicle in the collection has either undergone, or is undergoing, painstaking restoration to return it to museum quality presentation, with many of the vehicles being certified for use on the United Kingdom’s rail network. From time to time, The The One:One Collection Museum will host guest locomotives for periods of medium or long term storage and display.
When these locomotives are at the Margate warehouse, they will become honorary members of The One:One Collection for promotion and merchandising purposes. As part of The One:One Collection, we are pleased to showcase this model.
Please note: the One:One Collection Museum is still in construction and not yet open to the public.
Imagine a collection of railway locomotives and other vehicles in which the subjects are not scale models but the real thing.
