Strange to see this here as they are banned London side of Bromley-by-Bow, as being too heavy for the arches, which are under all the way to the terminus?

Plus a bonus 50 and 52.

 

I had a couple of enjoyable runs with it to Bridgnorth (it was sharing duties on Train 3 with 33108). One of my mates gave me some stick about why I would go that far to travel behind a 47 but it looked and sounded great.
