FMCCS527 Class 40 214 Guide Bridge

No date for this one, I haven't been there for around 35 years but my initial thought was this is Guide Bridge. Pre tops and Class 40 has lost the D prefix and nameplate so probably early 70's, certainly looks a long ballast train.

The loco was new to Willesden in June 1959 and later named Antonia. A Longsight loco from the late 60's onwards she was withdrawn in November1981 and cut up at Swindon two years later.
