1V97 for Bristol

Always a favourite location was Stonebridge to the South of Durham, I have posted shots similar before, but I came across this of 45144 Royal Signals sporting painted plates and Tinsley emblems so I decided to scan it. This was 1V97, the 15:53 Newcastle to Bristol Parcels train on 2nd September 1987. The service was at this time a regular job for a Peak, following them losing their Trans-Pennine work.

 

I confess to removing some power wires from the sky area!
