40145 'East Lancashire Railway' passes Combs with a Birmingham International to Buxton railtour on the 15th September 2007.
Although the loco looks good in this livery, to stir my memory, a 40 would need to be in battered BR blue (or BR green with 40122 and 40106) as that is how I remember them. However, the noise this thing was making as it passed me at little more than walking pace on full power certainly did stir the memories, and nearly caused a wet patch if I'm honest!
