The Statesman Returns
Locomotive Services Class 47, 47 501 / D1944 "Craftsman" leads the final leg of The Statesman railtour as it passes through Acton Bridge on its return from Fort William to Milton Keynes as 1Z64.
47501's paintwork shows the unfortunate effects of the lack of vegetation clearance north of the border, particularly on some stretches of the West Highland Line where this train had been on tour over the weekend.
