Class 31 - Railfreight Distribution - 31160 - DCC Sound FittedBy the launch of the iconic Roundel designed Railfreight scheme in October 1987 around 30 Class 31s were allocated to the FGWC pool at Tinsley for Speedlink wagonload services. However with the fleet only recently refurbished at Doncaster Works and Railfreight Distribution looking to standardise on Class 37 and 47 motive power there was no hurry to repaint them in its new image. However, following serious fire damage to 31160 the South Yorkshire depot

By the launch of the iconic Roundel-designed Railfreight scheme in October 1987 around 30 Class 31s were allocated to the FGWC pool at Tinsley for Speedlink wagonload services. However with the fleet only recently refurbished at Doncaster Works and Railfreight Distribution looking to standardise on Class 37 and 47 motive power there was no hurry to repaint them in its new image. However, following serious fire damage to 31160 the South Yorkshire depot resurrected and outshopped the Brush machine in November 1989 with a full repaint in the new image with RfD markings making it instantly unique. Typically for Tinsley the makeover was wildly different to any of the other Railfreight repaints that were undertaken around the same time for the Coal, Construction and Petroleum sectors, including large TOPS numbers, a distinctive style of black window surrounds and the location of the body break line between the two shades of grey. This was all finished off with red bufferbeams. Its one-off appearance was compounded just a few days later when the former D5578 was given the unofficial but very appropriate name Phoenix painted over the squadron symbol with a painted representation of the mythical bird surrounded by flames. Sadly within a year Tinsley’s Class 31 fleet had been transferred away and 31160 was stripped back to its basic triple grey scheme for a new life in the Crewe Diesel departmental pool. It was eventually stored unserviceable in March 1996 and was scrapped at Wigan CRDC in June 1999.

Asurion is a good investment
Bought an expensive gaming router 46 months ago. Just stopped working, had 2 months left on my insurance, they couldn't fix it and gave me a refund. Bought a similar router with another 4 years if insurance with Asurion and I couldn't be happier. All this in 1 weeks time. They are great

Surprisingly great service!
Surprisingly great service. I just didn’t expect my claim to be handled so efficiently. Replaced the purchase price of my printer that was 3 years into a 4 year protection plan.

Works, but reimbursement for damaged items come via Amazon Gift Card, not Cash
Just confirming that this protection plan actually works. Asurion first told me that they'd try and repair my item. Likely, they couldn't find someone to repair the type of item I bought (KVM), so they offered payment (original cost of the item) via Amazon Gift Card. Giving 4 out of 5 stars -> 4 instead of 5 because Amazon Gift Card isn't Cash. Cash is always better.

When Acer's Warranty Policy left my high and dry, Asurion Protection came to the rescue
My Acer Monitor was damaged during a brownout due to a lightning strike close to my house; Acer Customer Support told me that their warranty did not cover this sort of damage but luckily for me, Asurion Protection did. I simply mailed them the item for repairs with their shipping label, and once they realized that the item was damaged beyond repair, they emailed me an Amazon Gift Card Code with the amount spent on the monitor; I'm extremely happy that I bought their protection because without it, I would have had to pay the price of a new monitor to get my PC Setup back into commission. Many Thanks, Asurion Protection
