Thunderbirds are go! 57313 ‘Tracy Island’ stands at Crewe station. A great idea from a forward thinking operator. Such a shame that their use was curtailed, along with the flexibility they brought.

Morning from Crewe 💪
Saw an interesting LS move on RTT so decided to travel back via Crewe. 👀
Unfortunately not 57003 which I require a snap off but I'll take a loco all day long 📸
