Siphon208 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Hi, Just wondering whether anyone in the group can help with this; I saw this loco, at Llandudno Juncton, in the late 80's with a large logo, livery, and the White Horse of Kent on one side. I'm not an avid trainspotting fan, but you do remember some things on your journey around the network! Do any photos of this late lamented loco, still exist?

eastwestdivide Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Here it is, 47638, looking quite shiny at a Cannon Street Network South East event in 1986: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandwich station Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I believe that 47638 became one of the Virgin Thunderbirds, 57301 Scott Tracey. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandwich station Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 When she was renumbered to 845, she carried the intercity livery for a while with a white swift logo on the side? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
