Class 47/0 no. 47237 hauls the 5Z42 1034 Bristol Kingsland Road-Southall Depot through Newton St. Loe on the 16th September 2013. This returning empty stock from the sunday excursions from Bristol has often included a steam loco this year so it was nice to get a proper formation in sun on one of the few occasions I have seen it. Rare bird 47237 was a bonus!
47841 The Evil Spirit at Leamington Spa on 21/07/01 whilst leading 1O04 05:16 Man Pic to Bournemouth.
Top express loco 47413 is seen departing Edge Hill with a lowly engineers train, hardly befitting this locos pedigree. Surely there must of been a class 25 kicking around.
Approaching Bury Bolton Street with a stopping train to Heywood is BR Class 40 1Co-Co1 No.40106 [D.306] Atlantic Conveyor. The East Lancashire Railway had an intensive timetable as they were hosting their popular Autumn Diesel Gala. I took this photograph with my Panasonic G7 on the 24th September 2017.

The centre vehicle, a class 127 trailer, was one of only a handful of suburban DMUs still to retain its blue livery at this time. (Thanks to Stuart MacKay for the additional information.)

Class 47 47804 pulls away from Wickford with the 1Z24 0737 Southend Victoria to Poole "Cathedrals Express" Rail Tour.
This train was running 12 minutes late as the driver did not appear to be happy with something around one of the buffers at the front of the locomotive during a scheduled stop at the station.
This train arrived at Poole approximately 24 minutes later than planned at 15:10 rather than the scheduled 14:46.

An unidentified BR (Derby) Class 127 4-car suburban dmu consisting of Class 127 & 186 in Rail Blue with all-yellow front ends leaving St Pancras on a Bedford service on a very wet day in August, 1982. These dmu's should have been replaced by then new Class 316 emu's by that time but an industrial dispute over 1-man operation delayed their introduction. Scanned photograph taken with a Canon AE-1 Program.
Avanti West Coast 390 020 at Blackpool North Station. A few minutes before starting the 9.47 a.m. service to London Euston Station, with me on board.
