    60007 heads away from Northampton at Milton Malsor this afternoon. Just enough time after a hospital visit to dash across and still get back in time for the school run!

    Thanks. The early BR loco blue and blood & custard liveries work together surprisingly well - especially with a Mk 1 next to the engine!

    Well it fills a suprising gap in his collection, quite suprising he didn't have one already! Will feel at home in Crewe that's for sure.

    Needs the multiple working and nameplates removed to be in original Crewe Diesel Depot condition!
    I’ll just put this one out there.
    When’s it going to end up at Kidderminster? ;):)

    As much as I don't mind a 50 (just about remember spotting them at Dawlish as a kid), please no more! Unless Kiddy TMD is being renamed Laira..

    When first delivered they didn’t have the MU cables fitted on the cab fronts, although they were wired for working in multiple.
