Three Different Classes

This last June post (30th June 2010) is made up of pics of three different locomotive classes, all taken at Winwick; all three classes have been seen previously on our blog.

A flask carrying spent nuclear fuel hauled by double heading DRS class 37s, 37608 and 37423 - this first pic is from Alan Rigby and was taken on 24th June 2010. The working was southbound, Sellafield - Crewe.

Jeff Nicholls' shot is of class 92, 92009 Elgar, heading the Tesco container working, northbound, through the morning mist, on 29th June 2010.

A class 50 locomotive, 50031 Hood, was the subject of the 23rd June post. The locomotive was shown, working north on the tail of Virgin passenger stock. Also in the pic, but barely visible, at the head of the train was class 50, 50049 Defiance. Our third pic shows 50049 (ex D449) heading the train, northbound with 50031 (ex D431) on the tail. Both locomotives are liveried in BR blue with large logo. The pic is from Andy Appleton and it is dated 19th September 2006.
