The Dyson and The Thunderbird
For the first time since at least 2016 when the DB 92s were restricted to the Channel Tunnel/HS1 only, a Class 92 ran under its own power direct from Dollands Moor to Crewe ETD.
GB Railfreight Class 92, 92 032 "IMechE Railway Division" made the c.225 mile trip from the Kent coast to Cheshire for a brief visit to DB Cargo's Crewe ETD - or Crewe International Electric Maintenance Depot (IEMD) to give it its full name.
Crewe IEMD was the original base for the entire Class 92 fleet and after over a decade away, the 92s owned by GB Railfreight are once again regular visitors for major repairs and certain specific work that cannot be done at Wembley.
032 - seen at Crewe - passes Direct Rail Services Class 57/3, 57308 "Jamie Ferguson" enjoying a quiet Sunday afternoon in its role as the Crewe Thunderbird.
