| 47830 at Saltley Viaduct (20/9/03) |
| Description: |
We go back exactly four years for this shot to the days when Class 47s held sway on the West Coast 'Thunderbird' duties. Class 47/8 no. 47830 in Great Western green livery (minus branding) heads the 1319 Wolverhampton to London Euston Virgin Trains service diverted via Nuneaton due to weekend engineering work. Class 86/2 no. 86229 'Lions Clubs International' was at the rear. In the background the giant yellow crane of Lawley Street Freightliner depot can be seen, while to the left is Birmingham City Football Club’s St. Andrews stadium. |
