FMcclrnegs026 47525 and 47xxx Bristol
Its Bristol Temple Meads at 19.52 but no idea as to the exact date.
Not sure if the rear 47 has failed here or what, looks like a parcels service and the front loco is 47525. This is my 2nd favourite 47/4 and the one I have clocked the fastest speed on when it was York based and working the ECML.
It was new as D1108 to York in January 1967 and stayed on the Eastern until moving to Eastfield in May 1987. It then flitted around and although I can't find an exact withdrawl date was cut up in 2010.
