If you thought Robert's story was over, then you were wrong.

After being send packing, Robert returned to the Mainland, and continued his services until the mid-70s, where several of his class started to be withdrawn. Robert was later taken to the scrapped, to then meet with his fate.
UNTIL,a nice man named Harrison Yablonski found him in the scrapyards and brought him to the Yablonski Custom Builds.Inc facility, giving him a second chance to continue serving. After a restoration and receiving a new coat of paint, Robert helped with Mr. Yablonski's errands, bringing new supplements to the facility and parts for his new projects.

And eventually, Robert was part of one of those projects

You see,in the late 1950s/early 1960s, Yablonski Inc. did an experiment adding a hydraulic claw to a BR Class 42 "Warship", but because the modifications was illegal,British Railways forced YCB to give the Warship for them. It was said that the diesel was eventually purchased by another company,and then eventually being purchased again by the "No̵̶orth Wh̵̶e̵̶r̵̶e̵̶estern Railway" but nothing confirmed.
But now,in the present,and with permission from BR,Yablonski has decided to bring the project back to life,using Robert as part of the experiment.
And the picture above shows Robert during the development of the project.

But eventually,despite having a new life at the Y.C.B facility,not everything is eventually flowers.
There is a little more to this story, but this is something for another day (and it is likely that the next part explains the last part of Robert's story so far)

And for those who think that putting a claw in an OC (mainly diesel) is "non-original" and "lazy", I just wanted to remember/say that t̵h̵e̵ ̵c̵h̵a̵r̵a̵c̵t̵e̵r̵ ̵i̵s̵ ̵m̵i̵n̵e̵,̵ ̵a̵s̵ ̵w̵e̵l̵l̵ ̵a̵s̵ ̵t̵h̵e̵ ̵d̵e̵c̵i̵s̵i̵o̵n̵ ̵t̵o̵ ̵p̵u̵t̵ ̵t̵h̵e̵ ̵c̵l̵a̵w̵ ̵(̵j̵k̵ ̵,̵p̵l̵e̵a̵s̵e̵,̵t̵h̵e̵ ̵s̵a̵r̵c̵a̵s̵m̵,̵i̵ ̵j̵u̵s̵t̵ ̵w̵a̵n̵t̵e̵d̵ ̵t̵o̵ ̵m̵a̵k̵e̵ ̵f̵u̵n̵ ̵o̵f̵ ̵t̵h̵i̵s̵ ̵t̵o̵p̵i̵c̵,̵ ̵n̵o̵ ̵h̵a̵r̵d̵ ̵f̵e̵e̵l̵i̵n̵g̵s̵.̵)̵ eventually,"thanks" to B.R,the claw was removed from Robert, but as I said, this is a story for another day.
I don't know when the next part will be released. I just hope it doesn't take more than a month to released it after the previous one (the first part launched at the end of July)

In the meantime, I'll change a little bit, just a little bit of Robert's design (the roof part in this case),and possibly change certain details of the claw.

I don't have much to say now,really.
But even so, i hope you enjoy it!
