Dirty Debussy
Still wearing the grime collected on her stint on the STVA before going into the Brush works for CAF mods at the start of the year, GB Railfreight's Class 92, 92 043 (formerly named "Debussy") shows off her new Dellner couplings for the first time.
92 043 had been brought to Crewe from Brush, Loughborough, by Class 47, 47 727 "Edinburgh Castle / Caisteal Dhún Éideann" (pictured) as 0Z81. 47 749 "City of Truro" had also tagged along for the ride behind 043, but was running round at this point.
92043 is the ninth Class 92 to be released from Brush with the CAF modifications to enable them to haul the new Mk5 Sleeper stock. 006 is the tenth and (so far) final engine planned to receive the mods, with 032 and 044 not currently due to receive them.
Lurking in the background is DRS' Class 57/3, 57307 "Lady Penelope" acting as the Crewe Thunderbird loco.
