Loving all the pictures, My favourite class and I didn't get to see many of them as  lived in the Lakes growing up and they had moved south by the time I was old enough to see them. Ill have to dig out and scan  my pictures of the 50 farewell tour to Carlisle from Waterloo with D400 and 007!

Another of 50007 taken at Andover on 26/9/87,

Going by the drivers headgear I'd say he was a Western man, it was rumoured on the Southern that they had a new hat rivetted on every 3 years at Swindon works :laugh:

And a personal favourite looking good a few days earlier at Basingstoke on 23/9/87...I remember being quite pleased taking this, only noticing the chap in the beige jacket when I picked my photos up from the developers a few days later.

Just seen a photo of D400 at OOC, alongside a blue pullman.

Now that must be a fairly close run time.

Got a link for it, Ray?

Would like to see that!!
