A pair of Class 40 aluminium Scoop Plates, both with different font. Text reads IMPORTANT WHEN RAISING SCOOP THE HANDLE MUST BE HELD IN RAISED SCOOP POSITION FOR AT LEAST 30 SECONDS. Measures 9.5in x 3in. The top one has 40128 scratched into the back. The Class 40's along with Deltics were fitted with water scoops for use when traversing water troughs and used for train heating but were removed once steam traction ended, so a couple of scarce items.
