August 3rd, 1990
Heaton Lodge Junction, Mirfield
This Liverpool to Newcastle express headed by Class 47 47475 in Regional Railways livery came into view before I could get into a better position. It was the only member of the class to be given this livery.
During the Autumn of 1988 several 'Sprinter' diagrams in North West England were worked by loco-hauled stock. 47536 heads the 11.20 Manchester Victoria to Blackpool North past Lostock Junction, Bolton, on 29th October.
Number 1 end of preserved British Rail Class 14 'Teddy Bear' 0-6-0 diesel hydraulic locomotive 14901 at the heritage Colne Valley Railway near Castle Hedingham in Essex (UK).
14901 was built at British Railways Swindon Works and entered service as D9524 in December 1964. With an incredibly short service life D9524 was withdrawn from the mainline for use in the private sector in April 1969.
D9524 finally entered preservation In August 1981. The locomotive never wore this 'BR Blue' livery, 14901 TOPS number, twin headcode marker lights or British Rail double arrow logo in service. These have all been added post preservation.
In railway terminology, 14901 is painted in a 'fictitious livery' that has made it to the real thing. Diehard enthusiasts including me will argue all day long of the right and wrongs of locomotive fictitious liveries but in this case, I approve. ;-)

This is a quick re-work of the fictional Load-Haul version to represent a preserved Class 14 on extended hire to a major operator; in this case Freightliner, whose livery it carries. Unloved and unwanted when in BR capital stock, the class has proved to be an attractive proposition for infrastructure work and other contract hires, bringing in useful funds to owning preservation groups. The image is based D9531 (which would have become 14031 under the TOPS numbering scheme) photographed at Oxenhope on the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway in 1989. This locomotive is nearing the end of a long-term restoration programme on the East Lancashire Railway (12-Dec-10).

Class 47 47848 is pictured heading south through Newcastle Central en-route from Craigentinny to Derby Litchurch Lane on September 15th 2017.My first trip behind this locomotive was as 47068 during October 1981 on a Newcastle Central to Kings Cross run. It failed at Peterborough but I wasn't complaining as it was replaced by Class 31 31160. Four other trips followed between May 1999 and May 2002 all between Newcastle Central and Durham as 47848.
Preserved English Electric Type 3 Class 37 Co-Co diesel locomotive 37714 just outside Loughborough Central Station on the heritage Great Central Railway in Leicestershire (UK).
