Owd Bob Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Thanks Chaps! I will post only the pics' from now on as all the dates i'm posting are all going wrong lately, please feel free to blame 'Her Indoors' for chucking all my note books away, it's just a good job she kept all the old negs' even though she had deliberately hidden them all away for nearly 20 years . 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium brushman47544 Posted February 28, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 28, 2019 On 01/12/2017 at 15:42, Trev52A said: 47544 passes the disused Team Valley Trading Estate exchange sidings at Low Fell with an Anglo-Scottish express on 6th July 1975. (Hmm, not sure if Anglo-Scottish should include capital letters or not) Trevor I've been wondering about renumbering Bachmann's 47435 when it arrives to 47544, since the roof details etc. are correct. However, this photo is dated July 1975, shortly after being converted to ETH and renumbering, and it still has the 4 character headcode panel. I have found plenty of photos of the loco in 1977 by when it has a yellow panel, so my question is, did it ever carry dominos? Can anyone confirm one way or the other please? Funnily enough it was my first Class 47 haulage in 1976, but at that time I didn't have a camera and don't remember! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owd Bob Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 One from the late '80's, 47 422 heads South under Cemetary Rd at SP Wigan. Some may find the old Red coach interesting. Was part of the overhead line maintenance train based at SP. but now seen here on the stored/scrap line. 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
