31138 BR blueJust 20 of the production build of 243 Brush Type 2s retained the disc headcode arrangement and cab roof-mounted horn enclosure making them externally very similar to the pilot scheme ‘Toffee Apples’, although without the distinctively-shaped power handle that gave the latter their nickname. Our chosen example is BR Blue 31138, an incredible survivor, which was the last unrefurbished ‘skinhead’ to remain in traffic. The former D5556 of October 1959 just fell short of its 30th birthday after being withdrawn from Crewe Diesel in February 1989. Even more incredibly, after having its front connecting doors sealed in the late 1970s, it retained the same basic appearance for its last 11 years in traffic, albeit with the addition of an orange cantrail stripe and departmental LMR branding in its final months. This period covered a diverse range of allocations to the Class 31 hotspots of Bescot, Cricklewood, Immingham and Stratford. Despite losing its front doors, like the majority of its colleagues it did keep the outer pair of indicator discs retaining that visual connection to the steam era train identification system. Typical on parcels, departmental workings and freight as well as a diverse range of passenger operations including DMU substitutions and the famous Table 18 services between Birmingham New Street and Norwich/East Anglia, it was finally cut up at MC Metals, Glasgow, in January 1990.

Great for dogs like to to chew and like squeakers!
Color: Mixed, Size: Medium, Color: Mixed, Size: Medium
Harder to hold up to his bites. He started to pounce on it to make it squeak like he was honking the horn. He likes it and carries it around the house. Its a must buy for medium to large dogs

Dog & I Disagree/ Aggressive Chewers Short-Term Toy
Color: Red, Size: Medium
This is day two, and, My dog LOVED this toy! He loved the squeaking aspect, chewing the center squeaky area so he could squeak it himself (adorable!). He also loved playing fetch with it, but he loves fetch, but this was fun for him as it wasn't a ball. The chewing enjoyment is where it was at for him as he Loves to chew, and it was a nice weight that he could really carry around and have fun. I did love this toy, as it was cute, and he was having such a great time with it! Until his teeth kept getting stuck in the rubber around the center squeaker area when getting it to squeak by himself. That was almost it, but he LOVES this toy, so I gave it another chance. Then, one of his teeth got stuck in the center and his teeth became hooked on the top of the outer round and he couldn't get it out of his mouth. That was the End. Perhaps more size options, small, medium, and large, with safer spaces, at each size, between the squeaker area and the outer ring- so they can squeak it, yet avoid getting their teeth stuck and/or their mouths stuck open. I would say the durability is lacking, as, while similar, a Benebone it is not, though it gets sharp too-ouch! He had the outer rounds pretty tore up on the first day, and even more tore up today, so if you have a truly aggressive chewer, this is also a short term toy. This is a fun toy and many love it, though many more could love it with a few modifications. As it is, I did not find it a value for my money, even with as much fun as he had; at this time, the safety aspect and the ease with which he chewed it requires I look somewhere else. I hope this helps.

Plastic cut my dog
Color: Mixed, Size: Medium
If your pet chews a lot do not buy. My dog chewed the plastic and cut her nose when grabbing the toy because of how sharp it became.

Great for aggressive chewers
Color: Mixed, Size: Medium
This toy held up well. My dog is a very aggressive chewer and will shred apart any toy she can. She was not able to tear up this one. I have not found many toys that she doesn't destroy

Best Balls Ever!!!
Size: Medium
These are the best balls ever! We have 2 very active ball loving dogs and these bounce very well and they actually hold up with active play and chewing. They still look brand new after daily use for months!
