Thunderbird & A DVT! (Banbury)

[nath9425]

Hi All,

Went to see the two thunder birds on today's 1Z40 - Running approximately 21 down at Banbury.

57313 'Tracey Island' powers up as it finally receives the green signal having traveled on yellows all the way from Bicester.

DVT 82101 And 57309 'Brains' pulls up the rear of the train heading North towards Leamington Spa.

Lovely Rain Today I have to admit...

Was this covering for a Voyager? If it was, I'd of liked to be on that!! Voyagers are horrible!!!
Great Pictures!!

Probably a railtour/stock move?

Is there not a booked run in each direction for 2 x 57/3s to work these blockage thingies... ?

I thought it was all Voyagers.

What's up with 57s? They make a bit of noise. They make a better noise than a Ped!

You prefer GM to EE? hock:

57s are better than any units but not better than 31s or most other loco's!
