Sylvian Tennant Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Does anyone have any information a loco in intercity livery being transferred by lorry in the south of the UK? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
298 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Any more information? 47579 went to the Mid Hants this week, but it is a tarted up plain blue livery. Then again (and as the Police say), "50% if what a Witness saw is probably correct, the rest will be complete fabrication"... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zomboid Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 How many IC locos are there at the moment? 43189 & 50031 are the only ones I can think of, but I'm well out of touch with that kind of thing now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for 50031, no comment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zomboid Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I got most of the numbers right. I'll never make a spotter though Isn't 50031 brought to us by the same people who gave the world a 2 tone green and loadhaul 50? I remember when I was involved in diesel preservation that lots of people (myself included) got very irritated when the only thing that a lot of people seemed to care about was the paint. Not "when will it run again", it was always "what colour will you paint it?". I got the impression that they would have preferred 55016 to have been rusting away then painted purple...

PM47079 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I think 47828 ex drs now preserved is now in intercity swift livery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steamport Southport Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I think 47828 ex drs now preserved is now in intercity swift livery. Correct. And normally found at Dartmoor which fits in with the "south of the UK" bit. Jason Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvian Tennant Posted November 28, 2017 Author Share Posted November 28, 2017 Thanks guys - i don't have much information at all. it was mentioned to me by a friend who is a non enthusiast and they say they couldn't get a picture so I'm a bit stumped. Saying that an Intercity liveried locomotive on a low loader is a hard thing to miss. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshall5 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Could it be the APT power car from the, now closed, ERM at Coventry airport? Ray. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
298 Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 Could it be the APT power car from the, now closed, ERM at Coventry airport? Ray. I don't think it's moved yet, was too dark to see this morning when I drove past and there isn't much of it in Intercity livery anyway...
