31407 and former Finsbury Park stable mate 55015 (D9015) "TULYAR" are seen together at King's Cross on the 25th August 1981.
The Deltic was waiting for a move to works having been restricted to one power unit by its former home depot of Finsbury Park.

55015 (D9015) "TULYAR" parked on the East side of King's Cross on the 25th August 1981.
The loco would later work the 1D08 19:40 King's Cross - Hull service in order to get it to Doncaster for a works visit as its No.1 power unit was pinned out of use.
A further failure at Peterborough would see it removed from the service and sent light to Doncaster instead.
