Guest Phil Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 IIRC the set did actually run one Manchester-Soton trip this year. I thought it cute that an ex Virgin 47/8 could meet up once again with some ex Virgin Mk3as to effectively work a train over an ex Virgin XC route. Hope the Ocean Liner blue is the same as DRS blue as those Mk3s might be out of gauge from all tha paint on their bodysides. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
