Further West we find another unidentified Class 47, this one is waiting departure from Newquay. It is August 1981 but the steam heating is on! I was never a 'basher', one Class 47 sounded very much like another as far as I was concerned back then, but a loco-hauled trip over the Newquay branch was always highly enjoyable.
A farewell tour of the ever reliable Class 43's on the East Coast Main Line took place over a few days before Saturday 21st December 2019. All are now withdrawn from service with this operator. The last leg of their journey was from Leeds to Kings Cross. 253 003 (W 43006) and 245 029, along with several carriages, were hand painted especially for the final journey. Well done to L N E R for their efforts, all looked wonderful. It was rather busy at Newark it has to be said.
