Thurmaston Throwback

47593 'Galloway Princess' hauls the 1Z08 09:31 Crewe to Norwich 'Canary Brush' UK Railtours charter, as it approaches Syston South Junction on a damp 23rd January 2026. I purposely chose this location in order to hide the rear two vehicles and rear gunner 45118, evoking scenes of the early 1990s when 'executive' 47s from the Intercity Infrastructure pool were sometimes a feature on MML services.
