If you squinted a bit, and had a few G&Ts, it could almost be a scene from the 80s! A Duff up front, and a rake of blue and grey air conditioned mark 2s in tow. The sound of a big Sulzer and the whirring of those motor alternators…

47815 ‘Great Western’ on the rear of the return excursion to Carnforth. The finish on this loco is outstanding, and you can still smell the paint! All credit to West Coast for this one.

Railfreight Distribution liveried 47286 ‘Port of Liverpool’ awaits its next duty at Carlisle. Withdrawal came in 1999, and the loco was cut up in 2000 in Wigan. A sad end for the loco after 33 years service.
